Parents are the most precious gifts god has given us because of them we are today, what we are. Then why sometimes, couples face challenges to maintain healthy relationships with each other’s parents. Sometimes these relationship differences turn so sour that it destroys marriages and relationships. Today Delhi’s eminent relationship & family counsellor, Shivani Sadhoo Misri talks on how in-laws can destroy relationships and even marriages so you can check on these matters at the beginning.
a. When the in-laws attempt to be too intrusive: especially, in joint-families, when parents forget to allow their daughter-in-law and their son to spend good time with each other. Generally, in today’s hectic life where both the couples works or one of them works, few minutes prior sleeping is not enough to blossom a relationship.
b. When one partner allows his/her parent to decide their life’s decision, remember your husband or your wife too have their own views especially if they too are involved in the decisions.
c. When in-laws assume that they should be always heard: the times are changing so are the situations and challenges to deal with them now vs 20 or 25 years back.
When husbands fails to understand that his wife needs his support to adjust or solve relationship issues in the family. Many a times the husband avoids the situations, leaving his wife alone to fight the war.
