Best Advice I have received when it comes to mothers – keep mouth shut and listen with one ear – ha! Also, tell her every once in a while how beautiful she is:)

… not only should you tell your German mother-in-law how beautiful she is but also what a wonderful daughter she has raised :)
Oh and in case she has more than one daughter, include your wife’s name or say ‘daughters’ – otherwise it could get ugly :)
