Due to be a MiL. What are the do's and don"ts to foster a great relationship.

[MiLbrowniepoints]

My son had just announced his engagement. I have met his fiance twice before in a group family setting, so no one on one time with her. She seems lovely and I'm so happy for them.

They live a distance away due to my sons job but due to move nearer home soon, so I will see a lot more of them(I hope).

I see so many threads on MN of hatred for MiL's so what should I do or not do to forge a great relationship with her.

You're still missing the point. Both partners should make an effort with their in-laws. And both sets of PILs should make an effort with their chlds partner.

Neither MIL is 'just a random woman' and neither is either DIL.

I completely agree with that. That is exactly what i said two posts ago.

But you didn't seem to understand that that's what I was saying! I'm glad we agree though.

Great!!! Seems like we agree right enough
