I had to step in to cut her off because what she was doing was adding even more stress for le wifey. In haha13's case, I would also encourage you to stick to your guns and set your boundaries with your parents if they are going to be irrational about anything. |
In that time frame of china girls - we are seeing a few divorced now due to marrying too young. Heck, even my HK cousin is going thru this.

Relationsihp will be tarnish with inlaws, but mother / father daughter / son relationship will never have grudges.
