On my father-in-law’s birthday, I want my son-in-law and daughter to buy groceries and take them over to eat at home. Is this normal?
I think this is normal, and the elderly should be more considerate of their thoughts.
For boys, the most difficult people to serve in the world are leaders and father-in-law. Treat your father-in-law with the same attitude you treat your leader. I guarantee that you can make your father-in-law happy and wish you were his own son.
The father-in-law should take the initiative to organize his birthday. It is not right to let the father-in-law speak. For the father of a daughter, his daughter has become someone else’s daughter-in-law. It may take a long time to see each other. His birthday is coming soon and he wants his daughter and son-in-law to come over for a meal. I think it's natural.
For the elderly, it is very troublesome to pack things at home. I think it is acceptable for my daughter and son-in-law to buy groceries and come over to eat. In fact, this kind of thing should be brought up by the son-in-law, and the father-in-law reluctantly agreed, but I didn't expect that you are so ignorant. My father-in-law has already brought it up, but you are still completely unhappy.
My parents are really old. They should spend more time with them and do things that go well with them without any conflicts. Don't say it's just such a simple thing, even if it's a little embarrassing, for the sake of my father-in-law's birthday, I don't think I should care about it.
When children enter into marriage, their parents’ generation really becomes old. You can clearly see the white hair on their temples, and you can also see their increasingly stooped waists, but in fact the younger generation can do very little for them.
You are married to someone else’s daughter. On her birthday, you buy some groceries and go have a drink with your father-in-law, and at the same time, you let your daughter chat with your mother. I think this is normal and what you should do.
In fact, not only my father-in-law, but my own parents are also the same. They are getting older and their thoughts are gradually becoming like those of children. But that's not willful, I just want the child to stay with me more, and I just want to test whether the child still remembers me.
As a husband and son-in-law, please be more considerate of the elderly person's mood and buy more food when you go.
