Well, I know this is a Fairfax owned site, but I found it amusing to find a direct quote from one an old MIL thread right here on EB....... Wasn't too hard to do a search and find out who quoted Just made me aware again how public our threads are here http://www.smh.com.au/lifestyle/life/want-...1220-2bo26.html

Pentaxian!
This is terribly lazy journalism (I use this term lightly)!

Who was quoted? I can't search and I have a dreadful feeling that it might have been me!

If you have a look at the terms and conditions rules etc on the site I bet all of our comments become the property of Fairfax. This happened to a a friend of mine when a fairfax blogger used something in a comment in a book This post has been edited by 3Keiki: 20/12/2012, 04:37 PM

I have to say that I was surprised that the author put so much in verbatim. Guess the good news is: QUOTE A new study says those women who enjoy a positive relationship with their in-laws actually have a 20 per cent greater chance of separating.
