Re: Dealing with inlaws and still being sane and happy
automne... If you havent got the support of ur hubby and u want to make ur marriage work, the only thing i can suggest is dont say anything bad to him about his family. As Mystic said up there silence is the key to most probably over come the problem. Sooner or later hubby will realise that ur putting up with crap and will probably feel embarrassed about it. Patience is a virtue, u should continue as u are in your own house but they say when in rome do as the romans (or something like that). When ur at ur inlaws stay quiet, speak when spoken to, busy urself with children, forget about the adults if they are useless. All i can suggest is be patient for the sake of allah, if they force u beyond your tolerance to do something then take a stand. If they touch their feet and eat let them, they're eating from their own plates anyway, unless u dont trust the food thats cooked then thats just ew!
