#Daughter-in-Law

A daughter-in-law is a third party entering under the contract known as marriage. She silently negotiates hierarchy within the closed circle of family, simultaneously welcomed and scrutinized. Both love and suspicion coexist around her as she deciphers her in-laws’ unspoken expectations. With a diplomatic face, she strives to blend into the household customs. Unseen strings of obligation tug at her every polite gesture.
