Re: Men - do you expect your wife to take care of your parents?
No, I don’t. Its my responsibility to take care of my parents. I guess I should explain this a bit. My parents are here in the US and my wife’s parent (her father passed away 3 years ago) is in Pakistan. I cant say that I would do the same since hers are not here.
Re: Men - do you expect your wife to take care of your parents?
Nope don’t expect her to take care of my parents
Notice how most men answer girls questions but when men pose questions to them they get offended, ignore them and make it into a gender rights issue lol
Re: Men - do you expect your wife to take care of your parents?

Re: Men - do you expect your wife to take care of your parents?
Damn, finally something serious from you.
Re: Men - do you expect your wife to take care of your parents?
Let’s take the word “expect” out of the equation. The person you marry will most likely not be detached from their family and in the case of men, this holds true even if he doesn’t live with his parents. So everything that is an important part of his/her life (parents, career, etc etc) will also become a significant part of your life. If he/she is concerned about an ailing parent, that concern will effect the marriage as well. I think when we ask if something is expected, it makes it seem like these matters are far-removed from your spouse and the marriage when they’re not and won’t be. Just as how other ways of caring for your spouse come naturally and without having to think too hard about it…hopefully showing kindness to their parents and maintaining good relations with them should as well.
Re: Men - do you expect your wife to take care of your parents?
^Well said..
I’m obviously not a guy and for the sake of the thread, let’s just keep the word “expect” there. I would actually expect my husband to help take care of my parents if there was any such need (May Allah swt bless our parents with good health). I cannot imagine a spouse backing off and saying “Hey, your parents, your problem” .. just sounds so absurd 
Just out of curiosity - why don’t you guys expect your wifes to help take care of your parents?
Re: Men - do you expect your wife to take care of your parents?
Depends on what is “expected”. All saas are not evil and I don’t think that a wife delivering food to ill parents or maybe taking them to appointments is too much. It is better than backbiting that all women engage in be it at work or at home.
Re: Men - do you expect your wife to take care of your parents?
We both discussed it and both know there will be a time when our parents will need our help and its a given both of us will give it to them when the time comes. It doesn’t matter if its her parents or mine, both deserve our equal respect.
Re: Men - do you expect your wife to take care of your parents?
I don’t expect it in the sense that I don’t take it for granted but I know when time comes, I’ll not be surprised.
mairey paisey, triarey paisey
mairey parents, tairey parents
mera ghar, taira ghar
this not now how relationships work.
Re: Men - do you expect your wife to take care of your parents?
IfIf one has to “expect” that from the spouse, then one has married a wrong person.
Re: Men - do you expect your wife to take care of your parents?
We work as a team and help each other in fulfilling our duties.
so I think he expects me to help him take care of his parents and so do I.
