Modern daughter-in-law
A funny e-mail…
It is a myth that when a son gets married and a new daughter-in-law arrives in the family, everything changes. Some daughter-in-laws are well trained and well mannered. They don’t come to change the family, they are there to be part of the family…
The new wife was being welcomed at the husband’s home in a traditional manner. As expected she gave a speech: “My dear family, I thank you for welcoming me in my new home andfamily”, she said. “Firstly, my being here does not mean that I would want to change your way of life, your routine. No, I will never do that, never in a million years”.
“What do you mean my child?” Asked the father-in-law.
“What I mean dad is (looking at her father-in-law): Those who used to wash dishes must carry on washing them. Those who used to do the laundry must carry on doing it. Those who cooked shouldn’t stop at my account, and those who used to clean should continue cleaning”.
“Then what are you here for?” Asked the mother-in-law.
“As for me, my job is to entertain your son!” She replied.
