You can tell them, separately, that it is important to you that they all get along.
Tell your wife that your parents will always be part of your life, but that she is the most important thing to you. Ask her what is wrong. She may feel threatened by them. Make sure you are very supportive of her. Try to help her get to know them better, and let them get to know her.
Tell your parents that she is your wife, and that you love her with all your heart. Let them know she feels ill at ease, and ask them to try to make it easy for her. Get them into fun situations, like concerts or dinner at a fun place where they will all be relaxed and enjoy themselves.
I really wish you luck!!

You try, but sometimes it just doesn't work. If they can't be friends, they at least need to be civil. And if they can't be civil, then they should limit interaction. If it's your wife that has a problem with them try to help her out some. Maybe invite them over for dinner or just do some things together so that starts up conversation and things. If all else fails and your wife and parents aren't really getting along, then just deal with it. She's married to you, not your parents.

You cant convince one side to see the other
sides postion. You should sit your parents down
and explain. This is the women you have choose
to spend your life with. And would like them to
appriciate that. And by all means remmember your wife is the one you have to go home with so
it may seem like your in the middle but you have
stay on no ones side.

Yikes...that's hard. I don't entirely love my Mom-In-Law, but after we had one big blow out, I realized life is too short, and we don't get together that often. I try to be on my best behavior, and she tries to be on hers when we are around each other. My husband had to talk to us both. We realize that we are stuck with each other, and whenever I feel particularly bitchy about her, I try to remember that she brought her son into this world and that he was hers first before becoming my wonderful husband. Good luck!

Keep bringing them together in social activities. Sometimes it just takes awhile to get use to each other.
