Amour. I feel sorry for your wife. So what about her parents? Would you be happy for them to come and live with you? or does your thinking just apply to your parents? My view is familiarity breeds contempt. Having either set of parents living with you can put a huge strain on the marriage. Although I do realize that sometimes due to health problems n stuff theres no other option. My problem is where in-laws marry their sons to girls in the west and then decide they would quite like to come and join them in the West as well. that just takes the biscuit. I have a MIL who has such motives......over my dead body.
