Loving the discussion everyone! I have a very very good setup at home. I live with my MIL as my FIL is no more anyways. He passed away before I got married. Even before we got married, my husband was very upfront that we will have to live with my MIL eventually when she decides to come. The key word is WHEN SHE WANTED. Once my SIL got married, it was very hard for my MIL to live alone. She only came to live with us down south because of my daughter and because my SIL is down in London too. She found it so hard to give up her life up north, her friends, familiarity, her own house etc. Yes the house is hers too that we live in as well but its hard for that generation to understand that.
Don't get me wrong, parents don't listen. They do things their way and no matter how much I try to tell her to chill and I can do stuff when I get home from work, she cannot sit still. There are some MIL's who probably wait for their DIL's to get home and give them work. Mine is the opposite. She will do all the work and I just do the rest that she wasn't able to finish.
Yes sometimes its hard because I cannot leave dishes in the sink because mom hates that. That generation is not like that. They want everything done right then and there. I have changed myself to become like that so these petty things don't bother our relationship (mine and hers).
My daughter has learned so much from her. Having her around is a blessing like Chick said. She is growing up with her Dadi around. I cannot ask for a better setup! I am truly blessed 😊
On a different note - I watched 2 mins of IPK3 last night with my MIL and BS looked bored. Why was chandni wearing that bright red saree and lipstick. The actress is very pretty but I see 0 chemistry with the leads. Sorry guys how is this a love story?
Anu - are you talking about Adhiraj? I liked him from the first entry... 😆 The actor has upped his game in terms of acting and its really good to see him in the same frame as Anami. I wait for their scenes!!! 😆
