Follow up in-laws: Physically they have great distance (West vs. Gulf), the struggle is digital; they expect the wife to call/text a lot and share personal matters. The family has frequent drama and includes + blames them. The mother & sister even screamed at her. Distancing offends the family.

Ustadh AbdulAziz al-Haqqan
Her husband's family are not her blood relatives whose ties are obligatory on her, but they have the right of in-laws, so she keeps in touch with good words as far as she can and keeps her private matters to herself. If the contact brings harm and trouble between her and her husband, Imam Ibn Baz said reducing it is better, and her husband should handle this with his family wisely.
