Well things are strained at home b/c C made a HUGE deal out of it.

Well perhaps it does mean a lot to him, right? I know it does to me.. I want my husband to treat my parents with respect and at least get along. And I don’t want a situation where they refuse to be in the same room together.

@Paheli00

There is no “probably”. He could have and should have handled it better so it didn’t escalate. He knows his wife doesn’t like his parents and with all the drama going on with the trip…he should have enough sense to realize what a horrible idea it was for him to try to get her to talk to them. He simply should’ve told them she was in the shower/bathroom/napping whatever.

In retrospect, yes. Hindsight is always 20/20.

@Paheli00

Don’t the in-laws ever visit them? What does the wife do then? Or has she refused to allow them into their home? Was this an arranged or love marriage? How did she act towards them before the wedding day?

They’ve visited once before. Now she does not want them to visit till she has a kid. Not sure if it was arranged or love.
