#5 Stop expecting them to be ideal in-laws. Don’t expect your FIL to help you with the dishes, or your SIL to help with the laundry, or your MIL to help you bake cookies with your children, or your BIL to bring you groceries. The more you expect, the more you hurt yourself. Snap out of it, and accept that there are just some people we need to deal with, difficult as they may be.
#6 Keep your head cool, even if they deserve to hear what you have in mind. If you really want peace of mind at home, keep your head cool. There’s seriously no point in insulting or attacking their characters, because it simply won’t make a difference. What you can do is stand firm in what you believe in, especially when it comes to house rules, and enforce the rules in the politest, gentlest, and most understanding tone you can muster… hard as that may be.
Remember, they are your in-laws, not your parents. I know this is very hard to digest, but you have to understand that in-laws weren’t designed to give you motherly, fatherly, brotherly or sisterly love. They were designed to treat you like their beloved family member’s spouse. Deal with it. Try to be kind, and if you can’t say anything nice to them, shut up, and smile!
