So much love, strength, and pride in the narratives. I think the primary attributes are on the mark in terms of what makes a relationship successful. Genuine caring, acceptance, support, non-meddling, humor, openness, appreciation and gratitude, respect. I wonder if, knowing these before becoming an in-law, one can apply the templates even if there are gaffes, misunderstandings, etc...
I know that many relationships are damaged severely by the stereotype, by personalities that grate, but it seems that if you know the 'recipe' you have a better chance for success.
Here's to hope, health, and love
