Re: help again!!

If your parents did the same thing, what would you do/say?

Re: help again!!

Is that really a taunt or just an observation he's making? Our inlaws/elders are from a different generation. They have different ways of doing things. Don't view it as a taunt or something automatically negative. Like sadzz said, if your parents were to make the exact same comment, would you still view it as taunt?

It's definitely a taunt directed towards me and my family. There is a reason for it too, which I will definitely explain later.

If my parents scolded me, I will be hurt initially then I would of course do what they said.

Since my FIL came, my hubby has became his pet and they are always in the room. I have to be with the baby ofcourse. And when I bring my baby there, after few mins they tell me to take her out to different room as she's crying. One thing I noticed, when I open the door to their room, My FIL will stop their current conversation and later on change it to more political Pakistani stuff. I'm scared, as he's brainwashing my hubby against me n my family.

Re: help again!!

You seem to be quite anxious. Just relax and try not to think so negatively. Also sometimes just hand over the baby to your husband and say you need to get some sleep or some such and go relax.

Re: help again!!

Inlaws not showing up for a delivery...each time I open GS I am exceeded in my expectations of how crass desi in laws can be.

Although it's been a week since his stay, things have been hectic n uncomfortable! I don't even know his return date! What is the polite and indirect way of asking or knowing when you are going back? Thanks .. Help guys

Re: help again!!

Would you ask your parent to leave from your house early...without them wanting to. Sorry, but you sound horrible. You aren't the first DIL to have had a baby and are busy. Deal with a parent in the house. Maybe think of him as your father and your behavior would change.

What would you do rabia, before your FIL visit, your hubby was fine n good towards you but now his visit is affecting our relationship, he's more conscending towards me and taunts me about my cooking. He used to like my cooking. What more, they are disrespectful towards my family.

My parents would never be like this! It's not about busy, it's about problems that's been creating since his visit.

Re: help again!!

Can you please focus on what's important: your child?
When we allow suspicions to cloud our judgement, no good ever comes from it.
