According to her, constant involvement from elders in household decisions often creates tension and unnecessary conflicts between spouses and extended family members.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1296\" data-end=\"1684\">Mariyam emphasized that taking care of in-laws should not automatically be considered a wife\u2019s duty. She said such expectations should be discussed openly before marriage so both partners understand their responsibilities. If a separate house is not possible, she suggested couples should at least be given personal privacy within the same home, including their own room and kitchen area.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1686\" data-end=\"1920\">She also highlighted that daughters-in-law should have the freedom to manage and decorate their homes according to their own choices. Mariyam added that empowering women within households can bring positive changes to family dynamics.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1922\" data-end=\"2213\">Fellow actor <span class=\"hover:entity-accent entity-underline inline cursor-pointer align-baseline\"><span class=\"whitespace-normal\">Sharmeen Ali<\/span><\/span> joined the conversation, saying many families unknowingly continue unhealthy traditions passed down from older generations.
