[quote=Anonymous]In my empirical evidence, I am going to have to conclude the opposite, OP: 1) My parents -- happily married, don't help THAT much, will help but definitely rely on us and trust us to be capable, confident adult who can handle ordinary problems as they arise 2) My in-laws -- not happily married, are unhappy in their lives and their relationship, seek to find meaning in their lives by excessively spilling over the boundaries b/w their (unhappy) coupling and our personal nuclear family. Thus, it looks like, on the surface, they "help" a lot, but we don't want their "help" b/c it comes from a place of neediness in themselves, not a place of confidence and fulfillment.[/quote]
