Why living with your in-laws is an awesome idea

  1. More people to love your kids every day.
  2. They can get up with the kids in the morning - and you can sleep in! (Oh happy day!!!)
  3. You can have date nights any time, without hiring a babysitter!
  4. You get help with housework.
  5. Your mind will be expanded as you learn all the ways they used to do things, back in the day (or back in the USSR, in my case).
  6. You’ll hone your skills for diplomacy - but it’s too bad the UN won’t accept ‘My in-laws lived with me’ as actual experience on a resume.
  7. You’ll develop a new appreciation for your husband - for all the ways he ‘overcame the odds.’
  8. You won’t have to worry any more about becoming prideful - it just won’t be a possibility.
  9. Learn new things about yourself - like, what is the true extent of your patience?
  10. Never be lonely again

    My husband had to live with my parents. I am still paying for that.
