Most of the common problems of marriage people is that the spouse cannot go along with the in laws (who are living with them due to old age)and vise versa.The one spouse most of the time suffers and grieves due to this situation.If it comes to the point that you have to choose between your parents and your spouse,to whom you will be with?

i dont have any problem with that my wife got along easily with my parents and i also get along easily with my inlaws. but if that would be the case i think i will go with my spouse i know how much my mother love me and im sure he will understand my choice and as GOD say when we get married we and our wife become one and cannot be separated.

i think for any one side to be unhappy with the other, the other side must have done something wrong to make the situation tough for both to live together or get along with each other. however, when disagreements arise, i will definitely sit both parties down and have a talk. to have an honest discussion and disagree in an agreeable manner. thereafter, whoever is the side creating problems should be engaged to solve whatever issues are at odds. cheers!

Hi there!
In my opinion, marriage isn't about choosing between parents and spouses. If we marry it doesn't mean that we have to leave our parents. We can still take care of our parents even when we are married and I'm sure there are a lot of ways to do that. It's just a matter of compromising with our husbands.
I also believe that in marriage, one has to accept everything about the other, including everyone they love, particularly their parents.
With regards to your question, I'm choosing both my parents and my hubby. We can live on the same roof. A lot of couples does that nowadays.
Ciao!
