thanks for your reply. Did have encounters were the man cannot financially support his fiancee and advised them to wait before diving into it rather than living in their parent’s home.

also with regards naman kung tinamaan yung asawa financially – i think ok lang naman to stay for a season ( hopefully not a long season) – so that the husband can find a job or additional source of income.

iba yung nakikitira atsaka yung titira. Yung nakikitira may limit ang haba.

hope you are enjoying the blogs

- or you can learn the politics of family relationship. I don’t like to look at it that way (not being able to stand on your own two feet). I mean, there’s nothing really wrong in wanting to save a few pesos. And if it requires a little sacrifice, then why not? I get your point that it is the husband and wife’s responsibility to find their own place, and raise their family. But at these rough times, I am sure that a lot of married couples out there, still cannot afford their own place. Families should help each other, and by help, I don’t mean that the husband and wife should be totally dependent on the parents. If that is the case, then, there is NO “real chance of being able to lead your family”. However, if both the couple and parents have an understanding of each of the responsibilities and roles of each party, then living in your parents’ house while you’re married, shouldn’t be
all that bad. Let’s just not hope it’s not gonna be forever

Good point, but I don’t entirely agree. You can still have that chance to lead,
but you just have to channel it into other means.You can negotiate things so you, your parents, and (hopefully) your spouse can achieve something or come into some sort of agreement or a middle ground. I guess it really depends on the situation, because every family is different. But it wouldn’t hurt sometimes to talk things over right?
(Assuming that you and your spouse have big pogi points with Mama and Papa. Ha ha, just kidding :-> )
