Comments on: In-laws dynamics and family gatherings http://mumsgather.com/2007/10/09/in-laws-dynamics-and-family-gatherings/ My very own mini, personalised, parenting resource. A cyber filing cabinet of parenting articles and links. I love sharing my children's favourite sites, online games, crafts and exchanging childcare stories and parenting issues faced with other parents.

Then the husband picks the wife up at the end and say a one-minute "hi bye" to everyone. Seems to work quite well. What do you think?

But u'r right, the key is to compromise and i'm glad that it always work out for me & my hubby. He's close to his family and i'm very close tomy family too! So we sort of have a common understanding that when it's a bday or festive gathering, we will attend. And lucky me, so far those dates havent clashed even once! <strong>Thank you for visiting my blog. :) You are lucky the dates don't clash. The fight gets worse when you live in different kampungs and its balik kampung time. Hahaha. Fortunately for me, my kampung is in Penang whereas hubby's kampung is in KL so we don't have to balik kampung. We live in his kampung.
