How do you get along with your IN-LAWS??

I get along with my in-laws. Granted we are not best friends, we have had bumps in the road, but things are smooth sailing at this stage. The other day we were having car problems and my father in law was sooooo helpful. He did everything he could to help us. When we first move ingot our house they came up for a few hours and ended up staying about 5-6 helping us with various things.

i get along with my mother in law and brother in law. but i don't get along very well with my sister in law. we talk and have convo's but i really don't like her. i know she feels the same way but don't say anything cause she knows that my husband will say something to her and she can't stand for him to be mad at her. but when we are all together as a family i try my best to get along with her. i don't want my kids to see that i don't like her. it isn't fair to them. my daughter is 6 so she is at the age where she does and acts like mommy so i try to get along with her.

I get along wonderfully with my in-laws. They are so understanding, suppportive and great to be around. We live in different states but still try to see each other every few months. They dot on my son (their 1st grandchild) and are very good to me. I know I'm very fortunate to have such great in-laws. We're making a trip next week to see them so I'm really excited!!!

Personally I am very lucky that I get along with my in-laws. I even lived with my husbands father and step mother for 6 months before we got married. People always comment on how I am alot like my husbads step mother. I also find myself alot like his mother in different ways.

I just smile and nod...LOL My in-laws are great just my MIL has a tendency to be annoying at times. Even my husband gets annoyed with his mom. But in reality she has a big heart and is a nice person.

i hate my mom in law and father in law. right now, my mom in law lives with us and i want her gone, i hope she leaves soon, or i'll explode.

Good morning Nascar_girl_4jr, I'm more than happy to chime in on this question, as I'm very fortunate in this regard. My in-laws are super. My husband is from a long line of big families. He has 6 sibblings, and his parents are from families with 14 & 16 siblings. I mention this because I'm convinced of the theory that: When a large group of people has to share a single bathroom, they just learn to get along better. (chuckle) My Mother-in-law is a classic matron. She loves and nurtures all of her children, their spouse's, and grandchildren with just the right amount of love and attention. She did most of the child-rearing, so I give her most of the credit for the fact that their whole family are fantastic people. As for my Father-in-law, he worked alot when the kids were growing up. So, now that he's retired the kids have been given a much better opportunity to really get to know him ... and he's a riot! They all get a big 'thumbs up' from me.

I get alone ok with my MIL, there's a bit of an age gap between my and my fella, so at first i think she was a bit dubious about me being so young (i was 17 when i met him, half his age as he was 34). We are also from totally different backgrounds and have different views, but we get along ok. I'm not so keen on his step-father in law though. He's very old-fashioned and very sexist and patronising. He thinks a woman's palce is in the kitchen! I try to avoid him if possible. My FIL i get along with fine, and also my step-mother in law. They never had an issue with my age and respected my education. I have respect for them both.

i don't think i'll ever get along with my in-laws esp my MIL. we hate each other.

I don't get along well with my mother in-law,I really cannot take it with her attitude. She always like to compare me with my husband ex-girlfriend and also like to compare my daughter with her another 2 grandchilds (my husband's elder sis's kids) She will buy them toys, books...but not for my daughter. She will take the old toys and books from them to my daughter. :'( With my father in-law still ok cos we seldom meet. And he is a old fashion man, he love my daughter more than them. He will get the expensive toys for my daughter and never buy anything for them. I like my father in-law more than my mother in-law. Heehe... ;)

I have a Japanese MIL and whenever she starts getting ratty with me I conviently forget all my Japanese. The kids think it's pretty funny because they know that I understand and poor MIL is going crazy trying to get through to me. She is getting pretty good a charades!!! But I do have a hard time with her. She has been a widow for 45 years and is use to making her own decisions, which until a few years ago was fine. But a 70 she is already showing signs of going senile and I worry that she could fall victim to so called sales people who visit old people and sell them health goods at outragous prices. Need to keep an eye on her. dreamjapan

some inlaws are good while some are bad.some in laws are very bad,they dont treat their daughter in law in a proper way.but anyway there are no inlaws who treat their daughter as their own daughter.
