The Jewish Household
Question
My daughter recently got married, and we we expecting her to come to us for the Seders. She said that she probably will go to her in-laws. I aways thought there was a custom for the couple in the first year after marriage to celebrate the Seder at the parents of the kallah. Is there any source for this that I can show my daughter?
Answer
There are different customs in different communities. These should not overule specific reasons that cause the couple to do the opposite. I would advise that you express to your daughter that you would love to have her but understand the difficulty of such a decision. Ask her to save the date for you next year and give her support. You will certainly be building a better relationship than causing strife over this issue.
