Can your in-laws actually be like your real parents?

Re: Can your in-laws actually be like your real parents?

lolz relax Maham :p

I think the key forward is; Be like you wish others to be with you. Dont take advantage of someone else just because they dont say anything. :)

And the key forward in a joint family is def. Compromise. If you cant compromise, you are def. in troubles na. Patience and be openminded. Dont think like "oh they are my inlaws, why should I do cooking/cleaning for them. I'm not their servant." Plz no one is anyones servant in todays world. Its such a narrowminded thinking ...
