Dear Thelma: I like my in-laws more than my overbearing father

Married woman laments that father is controlling and doesn't accept husband.

I am 34 and married with a two-year-old son. I am the eldest in my family and work as an officer in a government department.

My problem is with my dad, who has given me a hard time since I told him I wanted to marry this guy (now my husband) whom he thinks is “not up to his standard”.
