How to Handle Difficult In-Laws, Set Boundaries, and Protect Your Relationship.

Does any of this sound familiar?

  • Every visit is followed by an argument between the two of you.
  • You are polite to their face and furious in the car home.
  • One of you says 'that's just how they are' and the subject closes.
  • Your own house has rules that someone else keeps rewriting.

What this book is

A book about the third party in a couple: his family, her family, and the line that has to exist for the two of you to survive them.

What it is not

A licence to cut everyone off. Most of it is about staying in the family without letting it run your relationship.

What is inside

Part I. Understanding in-law tension

Part II. Protecting the couple

Part III. Hot situations

Part IV. Repair and peace

Part V. Building a healthy extended family

And then. Appendices with the practical material, a glossary of the terms used, further reading, and where to get help.

Buy it if

  • Their family is in your marriage and you cannot say it out loud.
  • You are tired of being the one who has to be understanding.
  • You want to stop arguing with your partner about someone else.

Do not buy it if

  • You want ammunition against your mother-in-law.
  • The problem is between you two, and the family is the excuse.
  • You want someone to be declared the villain.

319 pages, and the uncomfortable truth that the boundary has to come from their child, not from you.

If you are afraid of your partner, start somewhere else.

If you have been threatened, hurt or controlled, or you think that raising this could put you or your children at risk, contact your local emergency number or a domestic violence service before anything else. Your safety comes before any question these books discuss.
