saas bahu and beta
I went on a bachelor party of a dear friend and all of us ganged up on the bachelor guy on post marriage life chaos. We ended up showing off all the fundaes on various problems, one of them being saas bahu and beta - the unsolvable emotional drama. Poor chap might have got cold feet but rest of us were doing what we do best - problem solving and giving gyaan :P So here is the gyaan in concise format on dos and donts. This doesn't solve the problem, only reduces the pain :) Read it with a pinch of salt and with satirical humor. Minimize dramas Minimize opportunity of dramas - There are two extreme lifestyles - live in a joint family or go nuclear with minimum connectivity. In the former way, chances of dramas are more but you have more support as a family to take care of each other's needs. In the later case, dramas won't be there but also connection between individuals gets loosen up. You need to figure out the right balance depending on the individual personalities.
