英国半数夫妻因对方父母吵架
More than half of married British people blame their in-laws for relationship rows and around one in five would divorce them if they could, a study has found.
超过半数的英国已婚人士责怪伴侣的父母导致夫妻争吵，大约五分之一的人表示，如果可能的话愿意离开他们。
The top reasons for tension include in-laws giving unwanted opinions, partners taking their parents' side, and disagreements over how to discipline grandchildren.
Almost a third of those surveyed described their partners' parents as 'interfering', with those who clashed with in-laws exchanging cross words on average once a month.
Two thousand married Britons took part in the study by law firm Slater and Gordon, which said issues with extended family are often cited as a reason for divorce.
The research found in-laws caused arguments in 60 percent of marriages, while 22 percent said they would divorce them if they could.
One in five husbands and wives said their marriage suffered from lack of privacy caused by their spouse's parents dropping in unannounced or coming to stay.
