inlaws problem

If he doesn't want to leave his parents he can still get a seperate house and have his parents live with u in your house, totally changes the dynamics imo cos it will be ur roof so (hopefully) more ur way of living. I know this is what a lot of Arab couples do, wife can still have all her private space but elderly parents are not left to fend for themselves. They are more likely to let u get on with life, how u want to dress, eating out at restaurants just u and hubby etc. all the stuff couples should be able to do..
