To feel that my parents judge my DH all the time?

Anyone else feel their parents constantly judge their DP on everything? Mine seem to feel that my DH makes wrong choices with money, is no good at 'typical man stuff' DIY etc, puts his kids over me etc etc. I don't know if it's cos he is my second DH or cos he has kids from previous marriage or he's just different to DD and my BIL. They idolise BIL. Perfect husband and father, did most of his extension himself, up at four every morning, laid his own cobbled drive etc etc. It's all passive aggressive comments about how much our car cost or how much time/money he's spent on the kids or paying tradesmen or the stuff that needs doing in our house/garden.

Yes, because all men should be amazing at DIY and should be able to build their own extension because that's what men do. All women should be amazing cooks and housewives and have perfect children. Ignore them. If they're that bothered about those things, tell them to come and do it

you absolutley got to knock this on the head - just one comment should do it. just lose your shit once.

mind you, you can't then go and bitch abot him to your parents at a later date if you do.

tbh if my family members make me unhappy - i avoid them
