Role of in-laws:sick of inlaws

2007-06-18

Name: tanya my husband is very immature...we' ve been married over 3 years and we r a year apart in age.
he tells his parents everything that goes around in our house. they talk daily at work so i dont even know what exactly their conversation is like. but on weekends, my FIL repeats everything that my husband tells them. there r certain personal things i dont want them to know abt my health or a Dr.' s visit...so last weekend my FIL was asking abt my blood test results which my husband must have told them...something was detected but i said everthing was good. i had told my husband not to tell them abt the results but he must have told abt the test already. i need to understand how to handle my husband and my interfering inlaws.

Hi,
I had been in exactly the same situation. We used to have horrible fights because of this. He used to go tell his parents things about us which are very personal.
The more i tell him not to do that..the more stubborn he would get and tell them even more. So Iv just started to ignore n ignore n ignore.
moreover dont hide too many things from your inlaws as this will again become a major complaint against you from their side like...she dosnt consider us family, she dosnt share anything with us etc....

Be strong

Tanya, be firm with your husband and tell him you DO NOT like certain things to be divulged. Inspite of doing this, if your husband continues, when your FIL calls to enquire, tell him to check with your husband about the test result. Hopefully he will get the message that you do not like them interfering in your affairs.

How to deal with this?

I feel that my husbands parents are using their son. My husband is from India and I am from the USA. He obtained his greencard and citizenship through me after coming here. He is a physician and obtained his residency training. I worked to earn for our family for two years until he got his job. Then he applied for his parents to visit us on a visiting visa. We were both wo... - Tina Shah [View Message]

RE:self centered inlaws

I agree they have completely double standards as I recently found out. I saw my husbands childhood photos when he was young. His parents claim they sacrificed everything for their kids and lived poor and behave like martyr parents. Got treated as free domestic servant. But the photos showed them dressed like Bollywood stars with watches and jewellery enjoying their life. O... - Tina [View Message]
