Re: Joint family
A lot of it depends on the family, mostly people make mistake by making joint family while they are very well aware that the family members wont go along very well with each other, its like putting things on fire, but if the family is nice understanding then it can work very well, with little guidance given to wife by husband about how to handle things. I thinks husbands can make things work very well if they keep a little eye on things for both sides rather than showing favoritism to their wife only or to family only. A good balance (justice) makes things perfect for everyone.
