GUEST22038	oh my god, I am laughing so hard at Lionpower's comment. I guess if any1 deserves to live and die alone, it would be you. Ok this is how i see this mother in law and duaghter in law issue. Your mom is part of your original family. Once a man gets married, his wife and kids becomes his current family and should have his top priority. That doesn't mean you neglet or abandon your parents. Support come in many forms. All parties involved need to abide to rules and boundaries. It helps if every1 sits down and talk and understand what each individual's needs are and it gets easier when all parties are heard and understood and the rules followed. Parents should give daughter in law respectful space/respect, hence not living under same roof is the ideal and least stressful situation. Mothers need to understand once a man is married, his wife is his alpha woman! Period! As simple as that. Mother in laws should go get a hobby, and stay out of other people's marriage as much as possible. Remember "Happy Wife Happy Life"!! There is so much truth in it!

A mother's love for her child is the greatest love of all. Right???? Unfortunately it is not always the case. Sometimes true love means to leave the person you love alone and let him (the son) enjoy his life and family. All mother in laws went through the same misery when they were daughter in laws themselves. I bet all my fortune, they allllll hated their own mother in laws. Now the table's turned and they're doing the exact torture. As a result, the son is left with no wife, no kids and 1/2 of his bank gone, all thanks to his beloved mother who wouldn't stay out of her son's marriage. It is time for moms to cut the chord and throw away the bottles! "Good fence, good neighbors" Give the married couple respectful space.

I say send them to the worst nursing home possible! My boyfriend is the eldest of four brothers in a Taiwanese semi-Catholic family (his mother went to Catholic school). I am tired of hearing that I am not chinese enough, or Christian enough, or that everything I do or say gets the response .." you shouldn't do that, in chinese culture...." etc... I have been respectful, but not subservient. I have been polite, but have also stepped on toes because of not understanding boundaries. Yes, I understand your son is sensitive, special, and a gift from God. However, do you understand that I am also someones' special child? There are times when I have wanted to dump my boyfriend because of the constant friction between his mother and I. I feel that he cannot choose sides over this matter.
There can be compromises, but a compromise is not one sided! Also, he has dated me for the past 3 years because of my differences and who I am, so why am I supposed to be a completely different person around his parents?
