[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is true that my parents spend more time with us and that they generally know more about our lives than my DHs parents do. That said, I put genuine work into maintaining a relationship with my family and he does not. Add to that, my MIL simply cannot accept that we do things our own way and will not do things her way. [b]Some of “our way” foes come from my upbringing and some we created on our own. [/b]This causes problems for me and her son. I think the largest issue is that DHs sister does everything MIL thinks is correct so it must be a DIL problem. I gave up and my DH is in charge of his family and we have therefore not traveled the 3 hours to see her in over 4 years. His choice, his family. I think this is more common than not.[/quote] And none of “our way” comes from your DH’s family of origin. Only from yours and whatever you and DH are creating. Right?[/quote]
