How long is an in-laws visit?Steve wrote: How long should
an in-laws visit be coming from another country?
Dear Steve Depends
on many things, including: - How much money you have
- How much money
they have
- How often they wash
- How much they talk
- How much
their habits differ from yours
- How many children you have
- How
old the children are
- How much control the in-laws expect to have
- And
more ...
But most men would accept their in-laws for 7 minutes, while
most women would accept theirs for 28 minutes. Seriously, it depends on how
much you like or dislike them, and whether you want them to come at all ... The
key to success is to negotiate in advance with your wife, then negotiate an agreed
visit with the in-laws; tell them that planning in advance enables you to prepare
for tehm, treat them well, and get good value travel. The negotiations should
be thorough and honest; if they come between you and your wife, you'll all regret
it. |
