Reply To: Are there limits to respect for parents?

There are definitely limits. My in-laws treated me very badly from the start, to the point where my husband had to take a stand. He told them that I came first, and that if they ever wanted to be a Bubbe and Zaidy to our children, they would have to change their behavior. That was that, both halachikally and hashkafikally; the spouse comes first, even if it means having to stand up to the parents and tell them they are wrong.
