Do conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law also exist in foreign countries?

I saw an article on the Internet a few days ago. Generally speaking, the conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is because the basic interests of the two creatures are opposed. So basically, genetically, these two people are prone to demons. moth. There are also many people around who are at odds with their mother-in-law. I wonder if foreign countries are the same as us? It is a fixed topic for women to criticize their mother-in-law.

1. Germany: The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is the worst.

Germans are also very sensitive to the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. In 2001, German psychologist Uller conducted a survey among German college students, asking them to evaluate the relationships between their parents and their four grandparents. The results showed that they rated the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law the worst. But this does not mean that there is always a state of "war" between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. The calmness and rationality of the Germans allow them to better understand how to live in harmony.

2. United States: Mother-in-law is worried about her son’s “qualitative change”

The University of Wisconsin conducted a survey on the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. The mothers-in-law interviewed said that when their son got married, they were worried that his son had not cared about them before and would not spend the holidays with him. What worries them most is that his hobbies, living habits, and relationship with his family will undergo "qualitative changes." The daughter-in-law under investigation also has a lot of worries about her mother-in-law. For example, she is afraid that her mother-in-law will interfere in her life, and she cares about what her mother-in-law will think of her behind her back.

3. South Korea: Pay attention to filial piety and don’t blame the elderly.

About half of Korean families leave their children in the care of grandparents. But Koreans attach great importance to filial piety, and sons and daughters-in-law generally do not blame the elderly. Most young parents do not live with the elderly, but choose to live near the elderly. This can reduce conflicts between the two generations (especially the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law). However, sometimes it is inevitable for two generations to have differences over parenting issues. Generally, young parents who value filial piety will not blame too much and make the elderly sad.

4. Australia: Disputes between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are rare.

Australians have a strong sense of independence, and young parents are less dependent on the older generation to take care of the third generation. There is not much difference between the two generations' concepts of taking care of children. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law generation will fully respect the parenting concepts of their sons and daughters-in-law, and will not impose their own caring concepts on them. Therefore, it is very rare for conflicts between two generations due to different concepts.

5. Japan: My wife has been married for many years.

After a Japanese daughter-in-law marries into her husband’s family, she must live in harmony with her husband and serve her parents-in-law. The mother-in-law needs to maintain the rules and order in the family, and the sons and daughters-in-law must obey their mothers. A daughter-in-law can wait until she becomes a mother-in-law. This is similar to traditional Chinese family culture. In terms of childcare, Japanese children are taken care of by their parents, so they don’t spend much time with the elderly. Children should respect their parents' education methods as much as possible when educating the elderly, but some elderly people are prone to doting on their children.
