Differences you cannot change

In some cases, the differences you have with your in-laws are within your control. You can change them, adapt, and compromise. But sometimes, whatever the issue is that your in-laws have with you (or you with them), it isn’t something you have control over. “This isn’t as common with my clients but it happens,” Dumaz says. “Someone in the family will marry or be with someone who is different from the rest of the family. It could be a different religion, different background, different upbringing, socioeconomic status, race. If the in-laws are not open or accepting of their child’s choice in life partner, that can create conflict as well.”
