Consideration on both parts Everyone is different.  My daughter-in-law and I get along like she is my daughter.  She is a great mom and treats me well.  I stay out of their business but am helpful and am there when they need me.  She and my son have good heads on their shoulders and have dealt with health issues with both of their boys.  I feel blessed.    I also have a son in law who is great.  If I go to their house to help with their child, I do things THEIR way.   I believe if we want to have good relationships with our daughter-in-law and son-in-law, we must be considerate of their wishes and in turn, they are considerate of ours and they invite us into their lives. They both seem to know what I can and cannot do(since I am up there in age) Hannah22 76 months ago Please sign in to give a compliment. Please verify your account to give a compliment.

Interesting question I may be the odd one out.  I have two wonderful, loving, understanding daughters-in-law.  They love my sons and are truly devoted to them.  Okay, let's see.  Perhaps I've reached a point in life where it's easier for me to accept people's faults and foibles.  I accept that one loves to spend money and perhaps lavishes more time and attention on her mother and less on me.  But that is her mother and I could never take her place.  I think in that case I would like her to understand to me it's not about the money or gifts, it's the time spent together that means more.  I like things done more simply.   I haven't known my other daughter-in-law quite as long, my son has only been married a year.  She comes from money but also divorced and blended families.  Boy did that make for a confusing wedding and meeting of the families.  She likes the best of material things, which again I can't afford.  However, she does very much understand the importance of time spent together.  I find I can talk to her a lot more easily and confidently, sort of like a friend than mother-in-law to daughter-in-law.   There isn't anything else I'd like them to do or not do but keep loving my sons and taking care of them and their families, and just spend time with my husband and I.  As I said, I guess I'm just blessed to have marvelous new members of our family.

Well, I have two daughter-in-laws.  The first one is now incarcerated for the death of my 6 year old grandson and I wish she knew that she could have come to me at any time for help if she needed help and that she did not have to be such a selfish self-centered evil person. My 2nd daughter-in-law is a very nice person, a little anal about some things than I think she should be, but then she probably does not think that I am anal enough.  Anyway, I wish she knew that I love a lot of things about her and that I want her and my son to live long happy lives, but that I would love to be part of my granddaughter's life.  She is now 2.5 and I think I have seen her a total of 4 times and they do not live that far away.  I wish that she knew that all of my life I wanted children and once I could have no more because of a medical problem, all I wanted were grandchildren and for my sons to have wives who love them and take care of  them just as I wanted my sons to do the same. I have no horns, I do not want to keep my sons as little boys and I never ever tell them how to live their lives and I could probably go on forever, but I will stop right here.

Time to spend with my son I would want my daughter-in-law to realize how important it is to me to spend time with my son and his new family. It seems to me that a lot of young families get caught up in their day-to-day lives(with good reason) and sometimes forget about mom/mom-in-law/grandma.
