[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What you are proposing is incredibly harsh unless it is initiated by your spouse.  
If you do this I can only hope you have all sons who marry women who return the favor.

agreed.  under no circumstances can I imagine cutting off my in-laws. they drive me nuts but they are the mother of my wife and the grandparent of my kids.  blood is thick and those that deny the importance of family are just lying to themselves.  yeah, unfortunately, you cannot choose your family.  that is life.  but unless you want your kids to blow you off in 25 years just shut up and deal.[/quote]

Totally agree - I am of a different culture, religion and upbringing and both my parents and husbands parents preferred we both married our own kind - but we would never sell out our parents even though they are ALL a pain in the A#@. We make the best of the time we do see them and don't include them in our social plans but our family plans and obligations.
It's been 12 years and I have to say they have all been there for us during the hard times.....more than the friends we actually "like". Sure our parents all have issues, but I am sure we will too and Karma is a bitch....You have to live by example what you want out of your own kids.[/quote]

I agree with these posts, and I cannot stand my (divorced) in-laws ... But I remind myself that how dh and I treat them is a good indicator of how our kids will treat us someday ...[/quote]
