If you live in a small town where everyone knows everyone and his parents blab how much he's making it can cause problems for him at his new job. If he's making, or being offered, more than someone else at the company and they find out he could lose (or not be offered) his new job. Most companies have a policy that you can't tell your salary to others. If he's new on the job and this comes out they aren't going to care that it was his parents and not him that blabbed how much he made. Maybe you can try reasoning with your husband in this way instead of just telling him not to tell them. I've always been raised not to talk about money and at my last job where I worked for 10 yrs before becoming a SAHM it was forbidden to discuss salaries with anyone. Good luck. Go celebrate with your hubby and try not to think about your in-laws.
