at home reading caitlyn's story now.. actually i oso hv a feeling tat my ILs tink me and hub earn alot juz coz we are dual income.. so my ILs will pity my SIL tat shes a homemaker wif 3kids and no earning power and thus EVERYTHG will pay for my SIL (u wun wana know to wat extend my ILs will help in terms of $$!).. sometimes we will KanBuShunYan but we oso know ultimately they pity the daug lah.. well, we juz close 1eye to it since we are staying wif my ILs now.. and to clarify, my ILs are like caitlyn's ILs; nice old folks, not the nasty horror stories tat we often hear.. so im still thankful to them for the care and concern they showered for the past 11mths tat i hv lived wif them..
hmm..... reading both caitlyn and janf's story....
caitlyn, given your in law's traditional thinking, and given your current state, your emotions are definitely on a higher note.... no worries about complaining cos it can relief u of the stress.... i feel that as long as you are doing what you can within your means and you are not neglecting them or what, it's enough already.
janf, mothers will be closer to daughters one lah.... it's like this one.....
for me i guess i'm getting used liao and actually we don't really interact much at home except for some courtesy talk.... well, there will definitely be some things that i still don't like but i guess at such age, we cannot change their thinking already and so, i figure the best is to accept and do the best we can....
