A question about the parents in law. #1 (permalink) Thu Feb 05, 2009 15:48 pm   A question about the parents in law.
 

Hello everyone,

A man marries a woman, they become wife and husband ,and can be called couple. :) Then, the man's parents are the woman's parents in law and the woman's parents are the man's parents in low, right? So, what do we call these parents? Could you please tell me?

Many thanks,
Infin1ty :)

It is parents-in-law, not parents in low, though some feel that's what they should be actually called. :lol:
