Devilaz 0 Report post Posted May 12, 2010 inregardless mother or mother in law there is only one. as for me i respect both of them, when they nag and nag, i will ask what happen? When there is a problem there will be a solution. Show more concern rather then hide away or push your partner to cover you. Like mine parents in law, i respect them and when they got problems i will tried to solve. This goes to mine parents too. Knowing that they like to nag still think of how they took care of me when i was a baby. All the hardships and effort they put in. Become a father hood now i learn to be more understanding and how they feel then they took care of me when i was young. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shmj 0 Report post Posted August 15, 2012 My mother in law seldom nag... its my Father in law who nags non-stop. Me n hubby ROM for abt 4yrs before we do the traditional dinner... all these while, he has been nagging, when do dinner, when hv children, etc..... I told him, ask your son.... all up to him. so hubby helped me to 'block' some out.I have a bad temper and I detest nagging. But when and if it do starts, I usually can sense... so before it starts I will find excuse to walk away.As long as I am not within the same area, he cant nag right?Now that we have 2 children (both girls), his fav question is - when is the 3rd one? Try for a boy lah. I am perfectly happy with my girls thank you. I dun need to have another boy in order for my family to be complete. Again, I am thankful that my hubby is on the same page & I usually say - ask your son. It is important to have a supportive spouse who can help to convey the little messages to your in laws. In your instance, your wife can probably help to 'remind' your in law Before you all meet up to try and not nag so much.Otherwise, you will have to pick up a new skill... "1 ear in, 1 ear out. Faster than Expressway" as Therat said earlier. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Someone who can or should I say have to hear their opinion. So sometimes the buck stops with you. I got my fair share when we were still without children... but the best way is that to get your other half to tell their own parents about it such as my hubby / wife is not much of a talker... dun like to hear nagging etc... this will help in a long way My in laws basically know about my character... not much of a talker... a typical 1 - 2 sentence man.. so they nag my wife who is used to it.Moreover I am nag innoculated by my own parents as well... lol so I have developed immunity after so many immunizations...

joey8 2 Report post Posted October 30, 2012 Yes, true, "one ear in and one ear out". One of the tactics I guess is to let yr parent in-lawknows that you are listening, answer them a bit ... and then quickly change subject. Both my parents-in-law are not around anymore, but I have a brother in law staying in my house. He also likes to nag at my maid frequently, luckily it is not nagging at me. But I am always the one to stop him from scolding my maid too much when there have some disagreement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
