I so disagree with this “don’t get involved” philosophy! How else do you form relationships if you don’t get involved with your in laws?? I got involved in planning for my FIL’s surprised 60th bday. Should I have just gone as a guest and not gotten involved?
You marry someone, you ARE involved in their life. If someone disrespects my husband, I will get hurt. I don’t see the need to be neutral. What’s the point of being husband and wife if you don’t stand up for each other?

i think their point of view is to avoid further deterioration of relationships due to the spouse’s involvement.

often times, you have to opt for the ‘lesser’ of the two evils.
