What do you call your in-laws?

[Saully]

That is, to their face.

 

[dpricenator]

What happened to &^$$ or $@$%&)( or *&%$@^? actuall that is what my wife call my Mother. I call my in laws by thier first names.

 

[Volusianator]

Deceased.

 

[Broadway Joe]

I use their names. That's the most comfortable (I guess you could say)

 

[rpb67]

I use their names.

Its cool that way.

 

[cvm4]

First names.

 

[Fox]

I do not call them. . .ever; the wife does though. My MIL is Marie Barone. . .I am not kidding here. . .:angryteet It really helps that they live 3,000 miles away. . .eace: :applause: :rolling: I really wanted to have a good relationship with them, but it was not to happen. I put them in their place a couple of months after we got married, at wifey's behest and have lived in wedded bliss ever since, now for more than 25 years. . .:togetherl :inlove:

 

[BradMc]

1st names.............Does this count for the Ex Inlaws, who r now Out laws, anyway 1st names, Not sure what they r calling me ( I have a pretty good Idea tho)....

 

[cvm4]

I guess it also helps that you moved that far away, no surprise visits :rofl:

 

[BradMc]

Moving to some place like Northern MN helps too .........But All mine r ex's so I don't think I have to worry .........heheheheh

 

[Idris]

Well here in Mexico is rude to call them by their first name, so I guess in my case will be "Ma'am" (sp?). Father-in-law passed away before I met my wife. Would have been nice to meet him (I've heard so many good things about him from so many people).

 

[WARDOGG]

When I was married I called them Mr. and Mrs. (insert last name). I never was comfortable calling them by their first names.

Mom and Dad for since day one they have treated me like their own. My Father-inLaw and I are really great friends and not once in the 18 years that we have been together have they meddled in our marraige. It is interesting though, my in-laws have been maried now for 58 years, my Best Man who happened to be my Brother-in-Law has been married to my wife's sister for 35 years. My other Brother-in-Laws have been married for 28 and 19 years respectively.

I guess you could say that marraige in our family for better or for worse, is truly for life.

 

[Fidel]

I married an orphan.

 

[oneaday]

Hell boys at my age I call em what they are............... "dead".

I guess you'd have a hard time guessing we didn't have an ideal relationship.

 

[David]

My mother-in-law lives 3 miles from our house, watches our son 2 days a week, and is one of the nicest people I have ever met. I call her mom.

I call my father-in-law by his first name...or dickhead if he is winning at our monthly poker game.

 

[Headbanger]

When they were alive I called them by their first names.

 

[no_substitute]

never been comfortable calling anyone else mom and dad, or call them by their first names

I called my first in laws "Mil and Fil" - short for Mother in law and Father in law

I've never called my current in laws anything, just catch their attention...for 10 years hahaha

 

[Saully]

There was a reason for this question . . .

Last week we were visiting some friends and the guy's parents were there. His wife called them "Mom" and "Dad." Since I never called my in-laws that (I already had a mom and dad, and I was 39 when I got married) I wondered if many did. The result is about what I expected.

 

[cvm4]

I just wouldn't be comfortable and don't think we'd ever get that close to even use "mom and dad." I'd have to spend every waking moment with them and I don't think that's gonna happen :grin:
