Didn't you live with your wife, unmarried for years?
Under those circumstances its a moot point.
For me, my wife was still living at home, and had just graduated from college.
I have a great relationship with her parents, it would have been rude to not say anything in my book. The infantilization would only take place if I said 'Sorry honey but your father said no, so I'll be on my way.'
