A mother-in-law and daughter-in-law can have a great bonding. I have seen that in my home, my mother and sister-in-law are like mother and daughter. They bond well and that makes things work well for them. Are there similar stories that you may want to share?
Yes, respect and being non judgemental is required from both sides for a happy relationship . *p*
You are right, economics and sharing of workload defines the relationship . *p*
What I am seeing these days is that since mils also do it work they are fine with their daughter-in-laws having fun. I think economics is the biggest factor in any relationship! *p*
It probably happens if both respect each other and also the mother in law is non judgemental. Have seen such examples. *p*
