Hello there, My father recently sold a plot belonging to him which he bought with his own money but registered in my mothers name. He had some financial crises and so he sold it. I'm married and I insisted that he should at least inform my husband as a courtesy, which my father didn't. The money has been shared between my parents and brother who is single.I have always told my parents that I do not want to inherit anything from them even if they have not given me much as marriage expense or so. But know I doubt that he is purposely avoiding the issue and I feel left apart. My husband has also said that he doesn't want anything from my father, but he should have a opinion in all that happens in my house and he should be known if something happens and that my father should inform that. I'm in a dilemma if my husband comes to know from me he will never speak to my parents or have any interaction with them and if my husband comes to know about it later some how. He will stop all the relation. My father is stubborn that he wont tell.As a daughter and wife what should I do? Please help

If your father had not told about the sale of his property it should not bother you or your husband. Rather you should be detachedly attached to such things, especially when you yourself are saying that neither you nor your husband want anything from your parents. In fact it is your father's property and he can do whatever that he wants to do with it. No one can claim any share from it. While the son-in-law should be treated without any reservations and should be considered as one of the close members of the family, yet if your father had thought it fit not to diclose the sale of the property one should not feel for it. Rather, one should be circumspect enough not to broach the subject at all. On this reason, if any one decides not to have any relationship or not to speak with the in-laws it will only betray their immaturity. As a daughter and wife, you should also not attach too much attention to this issue and rather convince your husband not to excessively worry about the thing.
