Guys I've had this question circulating my head for awhile and I'm sure it has been addressed previously, but let's see if your opinions have changed. Suppose you're a guy in his early 20s and you've met a gorgeous girl and ended up marrying her. Now, you have a mother and unfortunately your the only child she has. She is elderly(50 or up), and she lives with you. After marrying that girl and you two move in the house, your mom is there. After a while, constant clashes between your mother and wife become very frequent and can't be ignored. What would you do solve this? I am sure taking one or the other's side would probably be the stupidest idea, but have your say and let's discuss. NOTE: You want your mom to stay with you because evidently, you can't live her out hanging and you also want your wife. So essentially, you want them to co-exist peacefully. Discuss!

Ur wife should respect ur parents period.

That's what I said intially,and I would make sure my wife doesn't mess with my mother in anyway. But what if the respect is not mutual? What then?

the only option is to replace the wife since you cant replace ur mom.

But who is to say your second wife won't suffer from the same fate?

Some mothers are devils so are some wives.

The thing is the only way to solve the crisis is asking your mom to live with your siblings or divorcing your wife and living with your mom.

I tell you things are not that easy at times some moms are very disrespectful to their in laws yet want to be treated with respect and love.

The choice is yours.

Wives are human and she is not a saint to just withstand day in day out barrage of abuses from her in laws.


Here is a real story.

There was this lady that could not withstand the attitude of her sister in law who would bully her, her in law ould visit her in her house and would continue with her gross manner to the extent that she beat the shit out of her sister in law.

Then the parents in law got involved and demanded that the son divorces his wife who bore him 12 kids. At the counsel was his adheer while the guy eaves dropped. He was so pissed of by the way his dad was adamant on his son divorcing that he took out a pistol and branded it on to his dad threatening to kill him. He also told his dad and mom to control their daughter and not allow her to go to his wife's house.

Apply murtidii aheyd, ..xeedho sidee lagu xagtaa ilkana ku nabad galaan, you will find a way, to make them live together.

Just don't take the wrong side so quickly.
