Marrying A Mama's Boy? Try These

Remain players of the same team
When it comes to your life, the decision of you and your husband's should be the same. Plan all your family activities together. In case, your husband tries to rearrange the schedules according to his mother's convenience, let him know you are not happy with it. Let him know your botherations.

Keep a watch
If your mother-in-law makes stupid comments on the dress you wear or your body fat, it is imperative that you put her in place. The best way to do this is to keep the nasty comments to yourself and staying mum to her remarks. Just walk away from that place. This will save the situation better.

Advice Dhada's
If your mom-in-law offers you useless and unwanted advices just acknowledge her advice. The next step is to make clear what you are going to do and finally thank her for her advice.
