How To Have A Great Relationship With Your Mother In Law

How To Have A Great Relationship With Your Mother In Law: This relationship has traditionally challenged writers and comedians, so here is a simple guide to tackling it, with VideoJug's help and advice from counsellor Hillie Marshall. Learn how to create a great relationship with your mother-in-law with these easy steps.

Step 1:: Respect your mother-in-law's feelings; Make her realise you're not trying to take her son away from her. You're here as her son's partner and your friend. You should realise that she's had a great friendship with her daughter - you should give them time and space together.

Never criticise her son or daughter to her. Find out about your partner's childhood, encourage her to tell you the stories and show you the pictures.
Step 2:: The right approach; Don't try to divide your partner's loyalties. Never moan to your partner about your mother-in-law. At some point you may come to a crises with your partner, you mother-in-law can be someone you can go to for help and advice as someone who'll know both of you very well.

"She can help during realtionship issues"... um, no she can't. she'll use relationship issues against me and as an argument for why her son made such a terrible choice! who made this video? worst advice ever! :|

Well, I don't know what I did wrong. I only met her once for dinner at her house. I greeted her warmly. She seemed very happy to meet me. I was very ladylike, nice manners. I did not try to steal her son, I offered to take her out whenever she'd like after she said her children didn't like to take her to her favorite places, I listened to her tell me something sad, and I offered to clean after the meal. When I was leaving, I was very gracious. I think I was very sweet. BUT I never saw her again. This was 1-1/2 years ago. He never gave me any feedback. I don't know why he continues this relationship. I think his family hates me and I don't know what I did which was so wrong.

Im sorry this is prob. the worst info I have ever heard.. Firsts of all your mother inlaw is not on your side her first responsibility is her child.. Just like your child will always be your first priority..Do not goto your mother inlaw for help.. Geez what boloney ..

my mil doesn't give two poopies if i respect her feelings. where the heck is her respect for my feelings. i never get credit for anything i do right but plenty of blame for the wrong. not only am i not good enough for her son but even he's not as good as his brother. her husband isnt good enough for the princess either. im a bitter betty i guess but these tips wont work on my personal satan. thanks for trying though.

Those where all things you shouldn't need a video to tell you. I need a video on how to deal with your mother in laws over involvement, criticism and the stupid things she says because she never thinks before she opens her big mouth. Got one for that?
