The confrontation between daughters-in-law and mothers-in-law has become almost a classic theme, which is even actively raised in films and jokes.
But in real life, you can always try to improve relationships, find a compromise so that no one in the family suffers because of the conflict.
But how exactly to improve relations
The first step can really be difficult to take.
Therefore, let's look at several simple methods.
Praise
More often you should thank your husband's mother for help, if she provides it. Don't forget about appropriate compliments. Kind words will help set the mood for a good relationship.
Keep in touch
At least once a month, but you should inquire about the affairs of your spouse's mother. You can call or write a message.
If you want to improve your relationship, you can also ask for advice. You don't have to use it, but your mother-in-law will be pleased that her opinion and experience were taken into account.
Give up criticism
You shouldn't criticize your child in front of her mother.
It is important to remember that parenting methods, cooking or other skills should also not be discussed if you do not like them.
A woman may take this as a personal insult.
