I have a good relationship with my parents in law. As we are living far away, I call them often, I feel guilty that my husband and me cannot stay close and taking care of them. I

It is already 3 years from my marraige and I have never fought with my mother in law.. she is so kind and when ever she is in my place or if I go to my husband's native me and my mother in law do cookings and house hold works together.. we both freakout for shopping and also for an evening walk.. She is more like my mother rather than my mother in law..

Hi rupesh,
Fortunately I have a good mother-in-law. We are staying away from native place then also she used to stay with us for looking after the kids for long time. She is good so she got good daughter-in-laws too (she has four daughter-in-laws including me).

I have a really good relationship with my mother-in-law. We get along very well, and we have pretty much since of the relationship between myself and her son, my fiance, soon-to-be husband. I don't remember there being a time, when we didn't get along. It's true that we've gotten closer, but we never disliked each other, or anything like that. It's just the way that it's been between my mother-in-law and me.

I believe I am good daughter in law to my mother in law. We never fought or I don't think we will never fight. She is very sweet and she often gives me presents. At the same time I also behave very nice to her. She is very hepful too. She and I live in two different coutnries. So, there is very little chance to meet her and communicate with her. I miss her, I hope she miss me too.

Personally I do not speak to my mother-in-law and wouldn't care if she walked off the face of this earth. She divorced a good hard-working man (hubby's father) for a drunken abusive jerk who thought that since my husband was not HIS son that he was the new punching bag in the home. This abuse started when my husband was 4 years old, and to this day his mother tells him it was his fault. She never nurtured or protected her child as a mother should do, and told me to my face while holding my first born child that she never thought her son would make a good father. I have not seen her or spoken to her since that day. My son was 3 months old at the time and he just turned twelve. My husband is completely behind me on this as she never once tried to defend him against this man, told him it was his fault, and has never taken any respomsibility for the abuses he suffered at the hands of her husband, whome she divorced after the kids were all grown and out of her house because he then started abusing HER. She would not even come to the hospital when my child was born because she would have had to miss her friend's birthday party and bingo night.
NO... I do not have ANY relationship with her, good or bad, nor do I want one. My husband has stated on many occasions that my mother is more of a mother to him than his own ever tried to be... THEY get along great :) Mom says she couldn't ask for a better son-in-law :)
