[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I like my in-laws more than my own parents.[/quote]

Me too! -OP[/quote]
I would be crushed if my child felt this way. I guess I have pretty great parents, I can't imagine liking even most wonderful ILs better than them.[/quote]

I think it depends on how your parents are. I am one of the posters who likes my in-laws more than my parents. It doesn't mean that I don't love my parents, I do. But they are very high drama and high maintenance (my father mainly) and can create friction, while my ILs are lovely, low-key people who raised a lovely, low-key son and I find being around them a lot more relaxing than I do being around my own parents. Plus, multiple people commented on the personality similarity between me and MIL so that similarity probably helps the vibe - my mother is a truly lovely person who I do not have much personality in common with (it's a joke in my family that I take after my aunt and my cousin takes after my mom, but it's a true one).
