I think that it is because they cannot accept changes. They cannot accept the fact that their children are already married and have his or her family to attend to. They still want the same attention and time like when their children are still single. We all know that this cannot be possible. Married life has its own difficulties and problems. If the inlaws adds to these problems, then your life would be in real trouble. In fact, they can sometimes ruin your marriage.

There is a lot to consider when it comes to the relationship between inlaws. The main factor is that the mother and father of the your spouse love their child very much and only want what's best for them, and often times it reflects the ways and methods that they brought them up on.
Different ideals coming together causes tension sometimes. I got along with my inlaws but also had that constant thing, having to conform in a way.

Sometimes in laws can be a little difficult. My ex didn't like my parents who were going to be his in laws (luckily I ended it before we married) because they didn't trust him and he had something to hide. I think some inlaws are difficult because they try hard to be a part of their child's life and some people see that as intrusive.

hello there!
This has been seen as normal now a days, in laws are .. well a pain in the tummy :)
probably because number 1. they see their children as perfect and that no one is ever good enough for their child or number 2. they are afraid that their child or brother or sister will love you more that he/she'll love them. jealousy that it.
you'll be the luckiest in the world if you get along with your in laws :)
have a great day ahead!
