Fences and In-Laws

We’ve often heard it said: “Good fences make good neighbors.”

There are a lot of places in our lives that we need to set good boundaries.  One of the most significant places is with parents and in-laws. 

We all have emotional connections to our parents.  How our parents handled difficulties and how they made decisions will affect how we act in our marriage.

But sooner or later, the emotional connection we have with our parents may cause tension with our spouse.
