especially if the DIL is of a different social standing and keeps a polite distance from her...Never really included herself in the family and a DIL who did her duty being duty bound...
Amma has played a very cunning game that she has completely changed and loves P whereas P has remained the same with amma in her behaviour...
Problem with K is that his weakness is P...you are nice to her then he is not that possessive and guard is down..insult her or make her cry then you are in trouble..
Sheena, have a real life example relating to this as well! my cousin brother married someone of a different social standing (also not a good family either, comparatively) in the beginning my uncle,aunty didn't accepted her, she was not allowed to live at home. This went on for 3 years, my cousin lived separately with his wife and visited parents at home. Soon his parents realized their son won't leave this girl, also he had a daughter by then so they brought her home. for their son's sake also for their grandchild. She lives now with them, All happy and satisfied. Point is one can if they really want. People bow down to their children's demands because of their love for them, they do shed their ego. But then all are different 😕
