I doubt it has much to do with upsetting them/ruining thier life.
its a weird mentality.
But i have sussed the weirdos out.(sort ov)
here's my theory:
if they find out that thier daughter/son in-law does not conform to [i]their[/i] standards of being suitable for their darling child, they will go out of their way to wreck the marriage.
Firstly the criteria such people set for their son/daughter in-law is unrealistic, anything less then perfection is NOT tolerated. i.e. I remember one guy saying his parents wanted him to divorce his wife because she did not clean a certain part of the house.
Anyways to wreck marriage mother/father in law will resort to the following:
- refusing to see grandchildren
- childish name calling, which is often blown out of proportion
- make nasty rumors up about son/daughter in-law
- actively looking for a new son/daughter in-law even though their child is already married with children
- shunning son/daughter until they divorce
- emotionally blackmailing them by claiming Paradise lies in the feet of their mother
- installing guilt i.e. "I have done so much for you and you are so ungrateful, your wife/husband is ruining my life, so get rid of him/her"

I know some men that lead a "double life", have a family with Paki wife and one with a gory, and neither woman find out about each other.
And it’s not uncommon for the in-laws to STEAL the money women have inherited from deceased relatives.
How bad do parents have to be to actively try to ruin their kids' lives?
I just finished reading an autobiography of a guy named Dave…his mum used to beat him, stab him, make him eat his own crap and vomit, she’d make him run around with nothing on in freezing weather, refuse him food and make him sleep on the floor in the garage…..the boy grew up with a speech impediment cos his mum made him swallow ammonia, a bad posture, trust, commitment issues and an inability to socialise with people in society…
I know of a mum who got her daughter married and then made her get a divorce.
I have a student in one of my class – a minor, who is so shaken up and cant get out of bed on most days cos her mum on a regular basis, forces her to get engaged and then breaks of the engagement.
Social services recently got involved over another little boy I know cos he was being exposed on a regular basis to indecent stuff…
I think those mums ruined their childrens lives. I'm pretty sure some of them are evil...whilst others may have mental issues.

One type will make it clear how much they hate the extreme, crazy fanatical Muslims and will make it clear that “our sort” is not wanted in this country…..the second type will go to great lengths to prove that not all non Muslims share such radical views and will go out of their way to declare their great love for the “Mozlems” and will point out how many similarities they share, how “peaceful the Mozlems are” and how vast their knowledge is of the religion of the “Islam’s”….really loudly in front of all onlookers.

I've often wondered what muslims think of suckup non-muslims. It seems a bit disengenous to learn nothing about the religion except some cursory talking points from the news, and run around making grand declarations.
The ones that really turn my skin are the intellectual brand of the second type you mentioned - their motivation is only to sound smart so they deliberately pronounce things in an exotic way "Mooosleems" "Gee-Hawd" "Izlaaaaam" etc,. - You know, the type that greet muslims with "Salam" without considering there may be a reason most muslims don't return it. They were so in vogue a couple years ago I got a little disoriented and had to open up a thread asking how the hell you actually pronounce this stuff because they were so insistant this is the right way.
I find them all a little embarassing, especially when they run around apologizing to all muslims on "our" behalf for various things you really can't peg on all non-muslims. Like [url=http://crescentandcross.com/index.php?page=articles&author=joanna_franci...(link is external), I have no idea where the desire for self flagellation comes from but it is a little bit irritating being stereotyped by somebody from your same group. It's like a non-muslim Uncle Tom!
Whilst I find their declarations of love totally unnecessary and incredibly embarrassing, it’s obvious that they have good intentions. I find their antics endearing.
The person I encountered on the bus today was an elderly Jewish guy. Had he just smiled at me, that would have been more than enough, however he obviously disagreed.
Why is it embarrassing for you? It’s not very day that people have the guts to loudly offer their apologies and warmly welcome you into “their country”….even though it is totally unnecessary.
He made my day.

Maybe this is a guy thing but to me apologies mean responsibility for something,.
So when we have folks running around apologizing to Muslims on behalf of Christianity/the West/non-Muslims for clubbing, partying, racism against muslims, et cetera it is like saying "We caused this." When in reality I don't think we did - and in the above circumstances I am often just as put off or mobilized against these kinds of subcultures as muslims.
Why should people be running around perpetuating the erroneous belief that just because I am different from Muslims, I am somehow responsible for the over indulgences of the godless? Whose impact on society I lament just as much as muslims?
It really does bother me because it's so easily exploited to perpetuate those kinds of stereotypes of non-Muslims.
Of course that's just how I view it, I guess if I didn't connect apologies with responsibility then I would just dismiss it as somebody introducing themself in a somewhat ingratiating way... but then what would an apology be than just a detached nicety of politeness with no weight behind it...

london: best city in the world bar NONE!
only place where you can meet people from every corner of the globe all squashed into one place. on moment your in Little Venice, next your in Little Arabia. at the moment im living in a mixture of Poland and Australia, 1/2 a mile away from Jamaica on my right, and 1/2 a mile away from Pakistan on my left. why live anywhere else????
the reason the are weird red machines at bus stops is to ripoff tourists. Londoners have Oyster Cards which are SOOOO conveniant.
the reason there are no bins is because of the IRA in the 80s and now everyone's used to keeping their litter with them until they get home (or chucking on the street unfortunately...) But thats ok cos one of the people who gets the shade of Allah on the Day of Judgement is someone who removes an obstacle from the road that might get in the way of a Muslim. So we have hundreds of opportunities per day to remove little objects from the road and earn Allah's shade insha'Allah!!
Im very sorry to say to everyone whos not priveleged to live in 'the best city in he world bar NONE', but although i am never proud to say im British, im always proud to say im Muslim, and always proud to say im from London!

I don't think she was evil. I felt sorry for her eventually. She failed to achieve what she wanted in life, she became an alcoholic, she seems to have had issues with her own childhood so that initially she was really good with her kids, because she resented some of the treatment she recieved as a child. Somewhere cracks started to appear and eventually they joined up and her child ended up being on the recieving end.
