Managing relationships is like Pizza technology you go layer by layer and get to the toppings last.
1) THE CRUST: Husband and wife form the crust so that is what needs to be given the most effort. This also helps in keeping in laws and outlaws at bay. Like my wife protects me from the sharks in her family and I protect her from my sharks.
2) THE CHEESE : Mom and dad from either side. Don't try to change them they have been that way for the last 4o odd years, work around the sore patches.
3) TOMATO PUREE: Just wish the sister-in-law and the brother-in-law could have been made paste. They normally don't live too close so maintain the distance, ignorance is bliss.
4) TOPPINGS: Aunts, Uncles, Your friends and mine - Remember each come with a history "Remember what we did when we were in college" let them live their good times as long as it doesnt go to bed with them.
