[quote=Anonymous]I am confused. OP says it's a second trip, but she is unprepared? Even if it's first trip, in all the years of marriage it never came up that he grew up without running hot water and food insecure? All of it is about your DH, not the family, the culture or the country. If you and kids being comfortable was important to him, he would do things differently. But it's not. Something to talk about in family therapy once you're back in the US. Sorry about showers and food. Insist to him, but in private. Put him on the spot and clearly state what you need: more food, space heater, taxi to X place, whatever. If you put up with things it will still be clear that you're not liking it, so the fam will judge you anyway - might as well improve what you can. They will never think you're great, so it doesn't matter.[/quote]
