Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. Genesis 2:24, Mathew 19:5, Ephesians 5:31. Do not allow relationships with parents to become too important. A common problem is to complain to a parent when we are not happy with a spouse. Some parents are always hearing negative things about their son-in-law or daughter-in-law. These kind of things can accumulate in the hearts of parents and create resentment toward their childs spouse. Other spouses go to their parents everytime there is a problen to be solved. While it is true that parents can offer great wisdom, our first strategy should always be to pray things through and talk things thoroughly with our spouse. Then with his/her agreement, we may wish to discuss things with our parents. Obviously, we should do everything we can do to strengthen the relationship between our parents and our spouse.
