the ideal Mother in law

Ladies please share your dream MIL:sheen:.We all know they are very important

my ideal mil:

  • my mil should be slightly nagging but not too nagging( it keeps people in place)
  • She can nag all she wants but has to cook ( i like to eat food cooked by others)
  • she should not be too nice .( its hard to believe a mil can be this nice)

Re: the ideal Mother in law

I hope my mil yells at me the way she yells at my SO.

and I hope she hugs me the way she hugs my SO.

a Dead one… none would admit..but thats the truth :hehe:

Re: the ideal Mother in law

Someone who is down-to-earth (no one who plays games or is two-faced, or likes to stir the pot/instigate drama, etc) , respectful (not snide, condescending), supportive, considerate (especially with respecting space).

That’s somebody’s mother…

and you’re own mother is somebody’s mother in law too - bet you wouldn’t want them to wish their mother in law was dead

One who favours me more than her son. :halo:

Re: the ideal Mother in law

There can't be any mother in law on the planet earth which is ideal to her Daugther in law... simple reason women can't be pleased....

Re: the ideal Mother in law

if my mom had a son, she would have been the best MIL …no bias here :slight_smile:

par my dad would have been a strict sussar :hehe:

Re: the ideal Mother in law

but sussars are not usually strict. :@:

Re: the ideal Mother in law

he's not a strict sussar at all for my husband :p But then again larki k maa baap hardly are that sort for the guy :D

Re: the ideal Mother in law

that fact doesn't negate the feeling of DILs (present or prospective) :)

Re: the ideal Mother in law

is not a big deal actually. only if MILS stop comparing their DILS to their own daughters and consider the DILS atleast as good as their sons' wives and the mother of their future grand children, things could be much easier. A MIL does have right to be as strict to her DIL as she is to her own daughter, but when it comes to love and compassion, DILS are not human enough to deserve that.

Re: the ideal Mother in law

A MIL simply has to think, "what if this was my daughter" or "what if that was me", cos she's been through that stage.
So before she did anything negative, she would imagine her own daughter or herself in that situation with a MIL. Changes things a whole lot, imo.
A DIL has to do the same... "what if this was my own mother"...

I think it helps a lot.

Re: the ideal Mother in law

I like your innocence :)

They're about as real as mermaids, unicorns, and the tooth-fairy.
