Here is the plot description for “Little Fockers”:
The test of wills between Jack Byrnes (Robert De Niro) and Greg Focker (Ben Stiller) escalates to new heights of comedy in the third installment of the blockbuster series with “Little Fockers”. Laura Dern, Jessica Alba and Harvey Keitel join the returning all-star cast for a new chapter of the worldwide hit franchise.
It has taken 10 years, two little Fockers with wife Pam (Teri Polo) and countless hurdles for Greg to finally get “in” with his tightly wound father-in-law, Jack. After the cash-strapped dad takes a job moonlighting for a drug company, however, Jack’s suspicions about his favorite male nurse come roaring back.
When Greg and Pam’s entire clan – including Pam’s lovelorn ex, Kevin (Owen Wilson) – descends for the twins’ birthday party, Greg must prove to the skeptical Jack that he’s fully capable as the man of the house. But with all the misunderstandings, spying and covert missions, will Greg pass Jack’s final test and become the family’s next patriarch or will the circle of trust be broken for good?
The movie trailer for “Little Fockers” can be watched now below.

circle or trust
Well always the best way to get in a circle of trust is to earn it with honesty and integrity
Time
Don’t expect acceptance just because you’re with their son/daughter, and show that you’re not there to take their kid away from them by visiting and spending holidays.
Find the perfect balance
Find the perfect balance between accepting and entertaining their family dynamic and inserting some idiosyncrasies of your own. Exerting too much power is a death sentence, but so is being too weak-willed. Show that you’re enthusiastic to adapt to their family, but always make clear where your primary interest lies.
family trust
i think the best way is to hang with them and get to know them and include them in your activities as well and your own family dinners and parties.
In the circle
The only was is to be respectful and honest.
What’s the best way to earn your way inside the circle of trust
BE YOURSELF.
Circle of Trust 101
The best way to earn your way into the Circle of Trust is to treat their child/your spouse like their the bees knees and show that you are loyal, honest, and hard-working.
Wear your heart on your sleeve
Or you know what you could do. Confess your undying love for your significant other, in a non creepy way. Then explain: that you’re nervous as hell to meet her family, but since you love her/him so much you’re willing to do anything to gain the respect of her family, and you won’t stop until you have it. Then all your cards are on the deck, and no one is going to think you have alternative motives when you’re working hard to impress them.
Little Fockers
The best way to earn your way inside the circle of trust is to always be honest.
Circle of trust
The best way to get into the families circle of trust is to be honest to both the one you are going to marry but especially the parents. The parents are the hardest to win over. My husband never got into my families circle because they didnt think he was good enough, but luckily I got into his families circle despite the fact that I was a drug addict.
