Dear Mr or Mrs or Ms ,
We welcome a difference of opinion . Thanks !! But can I ask you a few ques ?
a) For how long do you want DIL to be quite and tortured ??
b) Why cant we share and learn from each other's experiences ?
c) This forum also helps us to unburden ... so why not ?
Yes the laundry is dirty but keeping it inside a cupboard will only make it rot , it needs to come out in open air . augustborn replied. Hi qvc

Subject: walmart candies??

I am sorry but pelase don't write stuff by makin gup stories for entertainment and to belittle inlaws!!!\";

Please go through my post carefully in the thread 'Gifts to India'. Nowhere have I mentioned that the entire stuff was meant for IL's. It was a general thread where we were all talking about gifts we need to take to India.
Just because you found someone who mightnot have been honest on this board, doesnot mean that we are all liars.
Also, had you read my post carefully, you would have understood that even I joked about amount of candy I was carrying...Nevertheless, it really wasnt so much that I couldnt carry it...Take my word for it!
For something which was meant to be a lighthearted anecdote, you surely turned it into an ugly episode.
Though this is an open forum and everyone has a right to air their opinion, its better if we dont offend each other by making unnecessary and cynical personal comments...

Diligent replied. All I can say to qvc is that you never know what is going on in somebody's house. Some DIL later on in life turn nasty because the early experiences they had with their MIL was not pleasant. I can tell you of my neighbour's example. When she got married her MIL was the queen bee of the house because her husband was alive, her 2 daughters were still unmarried. So she had very strong support and was extremely mean and hard on her DIL for many years. This DIL must have borne everything silently accepting whatever dirt that came alone her way but tables turn. Many years later, the MIL lost her husband, daughters got married and moved away to start their own life and the MIL now old had no body but her son and DIL to rely on for her remaining time.

The DIL gave her back all that she had tolerated. The bitter feelings of mistreatment never go away. After all we are human.

So basically my friend, \";talli do haath se bajti he.\"; And let's not make everyone a Rani here, every person who visits this forum here has a right to their opinion. But no one has the right to pin point or say nasty things also when they write a topic. Rani's accusing tone in her posts and her direct accusations were unfair and got many people including myself very angry. But let us take everyone's feelings into consideration and not make this a battle field. ok replied. btw who r u and why do you worry about what everyone says here.
I wonder if you r rani disguising under the name of qvc.

Ladies another rani is here!!!
