NO! We stayed by my In laws one week when we were first married because our apartment was not ready. That was 1 week to long. You have NO provacy and everyone has a say in what you do. It is a good way to ruin a marriage.

I agree with you because they always check every move you make, how do speak with them and your husband and if they want to ruin your marrige they can ruin it.

Hi! I don't think its a good idea staying with our families after getting married. In-laws or our own parents sometimes gets in the way in our decision making for our own family and that tends to cause problems in our relationship with our husbands. They also notice everything you do so there's no privacy for you and your husband and somtimes can control your relationship. It's better if you try to live separately with them. In that way you will never have to deal with anyone except your husband when it comes to your own family matters. Hope that helps. Ciao!

Personally, there is no way I could do it. Two women sharing one kitchen would be pretty difficult - though I understand in some cultures people prefer to keep the family unit together and are all happy to live in one big home. I'm a very private person, and even staying at my inlaws' for a weekend is enough. I think it very much depends on the temperaments of the people involved as to whether this would work. For me - NO WAY.

I think it is not a good idea, because if you fight with your husband, and your family is arround, they will defend you from your husband, and your husband will make them as his enemy .. it wasn't good, because when you already have better relationship with your husband, your husband could still keep in his mind, your family as his enemy after all

I don't think it's a good idea to live with your family when you're married, since you're creating your own family yourself. Married couple should be able to stand on their own without they parents.
