I can imagine you must miss your family very much. It is honorable that you kept your promise to your mother-in-law. It is good that she has changed. Honesty and honor are very important. It may be good if you talk to your husband and mother-in-law. Let them know that you know you made a promise and you will stand by that promise if they insist. However, it would mean a lot to you if they would allow you to show your baby to your family because you know how proud they will be. Just as she is proud of her grandson. Flatter your mother-in-law. Make her feel good about relieving you of that promise. Tell her you miss your family just as her son would miss her if he were forced to live without seeing her. Good luck.

I wouldn't give up my family because that's what my beloved told me to do. If you really love a person, you will love what she love and respect what she had in the past. Your parents would still accept you if you would apologize to them. Our life is a big thing we owe to our parents. Always remember, settling things is the best solution to your problems.
