Re: Can your in-laws actually be like your real parents?
I agree with Sabriya...I think marriage does come with a lot of resoposibility. Look at it this way, even if you move out you'll still have to cook for your husband and yourself (unless you guys plan on eating out everyday), but even then you'll have to learn how to cook sometimes in your life. So if you're are gonna cook for your husband and yourself then it doesn't hurt to cook for 3-4 people more. I think it's important that we look at our in-laws like our parents because when your mom gives you some responsibility you don't try and run away from it or say you're gonna move out (at least i don't). When if my mom criticize me, yells at me, or stops me from doing anything, I still love her to death, and I think we all should behave the same with our in-laws as well. Try cooking for them from your heart and i am sure it will only make you happy. As far as the issue of privacy is concerned, I think there is no better joy than living with a whole family rather then just your husband.
