First of all, this thesis will discuss the problems about mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will face to in the patriarchal culture. They are defined as the caretaker, and they compete in the three levels of in-between procreation and bearing independence, arrangement of family tasks and caring confrontation, and the position of a family and the emotion of family members.

People should learn caring and cared in the relationships of each other. There is priority. They should care themselves before caring the others. The nature caring should be before the ethical caring.

But only the caring between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law still can not resolves the difficulty of the relationship in a family. In the caring from wife to husband will affect husband's willing to take care of the family, be the supporter of his wife, the caretaker of kids and the coordinator of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. During the caring of the male member that mother-in-law and daughter-in-law could be free from the confrontation relationship and have chances to attain themselves inside or outside the family.
