I always make it a habit of consulting them as their experience helps me a lot. They are your parents and your wellwishers too. I sentimentally feel their guidance is necessary in every step of my life. Be it parents or parents in law they are very important to us so do their opinions.How about you? Do you consult them before you make important decisions in life.

Yes, I do. I like to know the general opinion of different people, especially my parents and elders. But I tend to confide with my mom the most instead of others..

I will do that. Whenever I take an important decision I discuss it with my husband. Some issues I discuss with my parents also and get their suggestions. I think about the issue, go through all the suggetions, advantages and disadvantages, and finally decide on the issue. Final decision is always mine if it is my personal matter. I am luncky to get a husband and paernts who never force me to take a decision. They always give me choices and remind me that final decision is mine. They always give me support to go ahead with my decision.

Well, i do because differnt people have differnt opinions and it is good to look at all thier perspective before taking a decision. But i take it only as a suggession and would never agree if i'm forced to do something according to thier wishes. Even when i do i sit and understand the plus and minus of the decision and then go for it. Interesting discussion, indeed!

Nobody can force anybody. It is just out of concern that they say it and you feel they are forcing you. So next time you take their opinion also see the hidden love in it. Happy mylotting.

Yes there suggesstions and advices mean to me a lot...But I analyze it before applying it...because they might know only some part of the problem and I have to see if it works...My parents and in laws welcome my suggesstions too... Yeah in most cases, they are right and it is safe to follow what they say.
