How do I deal with in-laws who interfere?
Agree with your spouse first on what you both want, then let each partner speak to their own parents. Set polite, firm boundaries and be consistent. Show respect where you can, because the aim is a stable relationship, not a win.
Present a united front first. Agree with your spouse which topics are for the two of you, then let each of you speak to your own parents. Use a warm tone and a simple line such as "Thank you, we will think about it". Repeat it as many times as needed.
