[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I understand where you’re coming from OP. I’m married to an Indian American and when I decided to stay home for a few years his parents expected me to be available to face time them multiple times a day because “that’s your job now”. As you could guess, we don’t have the best relationship now 🥴[/quote] This is the reason most Indian parents don't want their daughters to become SAHMs. They fear the in-laws will treat her with total disrespect and expect her to be available at all times for any reason because her job has become to serve the family.[/quote] +2 this has been my experience as well, unfortunately. [/quote] I would talk to my MIL in the morning and then when my husband got home in the evening she'd call. She'd tell him I'm failing as a mother, wife, and DIL. Twelve years later I'm still happily married but I don't have a relationship with the ILs.[/quote]
