Be happy

Hi Shvetha,
I can understand how u feel, I also have experienced sort of this kind of behaviour from my inlaws. No matter whatever i do for my ILs, they never seems to be happy. But now I just do what I feel is right, dont expect them to appreciate.They are basically nice people but may be I dont fit their description of a good DIL.I would suggest you u do your best to fulfil ur resposibilities and feel good about urselves , hopefully ur FIL will acknowledge it SOMEDAY or may be he does but cant accept it. I hope atleast ur hubby supports u.Dont let urself down, it will only affect u and nobody else. U R working must be having few friend also.Talk to them when feeling low, u will denitely feel good. Above everything u have ur wonderful family ( ur son & husband).Just be happy, crying always would help u release ur pain, so just go ahead and BE URSELF.tAKE CARE

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]
