Well pregnant or only daughter doesn't mean they should spend everyday with her.
Soon too much visiting may turn to contempt and the respect won't be there anymore.
If she goes to work from their during week days, the mom should let them enjoy their weekends together jare. That's not too much to ask.

As for that other thread, I just use eye look the story. One of those things that in-law meddlesome attitude can cause.
At least he didn't agree with his mom on that issue so let's give the guy a break.

There should be balance either way. Each party should try to make sure their family is not making their partner uncomfortable.

Will you be of this same opinion if it was the man's mother and he's not complaining?

Until someone opens a thread on that topic, you'll be very surprised to read the responses of females if the situation was reversed.

She is bored. Pity.
Op, suggest to your wife the need for your mil to adopt a child....maybe from 5-10 year old girl as her own to keep her company and nurture.

Hmmmm !!!! I can just imagine how much she cried when her only daughter was wedding..... both happiness and pains of boredom....

My brother just try and accommodate her please....she was just being bored...It will be ok as time goes on....The way I see it, she would have died of boredom assuming her daughter married outside Lagos....

What about the husband OP?
Re: My MIL Frequents Our House . by aameyah(f): 9:11pm On Jan 31, 2016
Since her daughter is with her weekdays, I think she should give the couple privacy during weekends...

I understand that she might be lonely shaaaa.

Your wife is her only child and she is also a widow. Just prepare your mind for a long time of her visit. She has no where else to go.
Thanks so much.
PLEASE send some sense to the OP.
He acts like he was never ready for marriage

Too much of anything is bad. Too many visits lead to contempt and 'see finish'. The mother inlaw n daughter have to realize this. I support the OP in this. Common guys, we know we should withdaw our foot from frequenting people's houses so we dont lose value. Same goes for inlaws. The Mom sees her everyday of the week and still wants to be with her on weekends! Haba! Then why did she give out her daughter? She should learn to let go fast
