your mother is a terrible person. for she to be so bold to say lies with a straight face shows the kind of person she is and I won't be surpised if she was the cause of the divorce between her and your father.

Don't feel guilty for exposing her, she brought the disgrace on herself. how can she go about lying against everyone without a conscience? she's now acting like the victim and playing mind games with your siblings.

she's very terrible. keep her away from you pls an becareful of sharing information about your family with her. she seems toxic and troublesome. Don't feel guilty , Ah! your mother own dey her body! which kind mama be that?

forget everyone and face your life. If your siblings ain't feeding you, then to hell with them. how can you mom just lie against your husband like that? so disrespectful!

How did you arrive at your conclusion? Ain't it obvious the aunt is the terrible person and momma was right bout her?

A newly wedded grandma got told by her new husband not to go see her grandchild. She's in a dilemma and without knowing the details of her first marriage, decides to keep her home and made the choice to obey her husband.

Her aunt decided to spill the vital information knowing it's going to damage her relationship with her mum and siblings but she doesn't care whose ox is gored. A very selfish being. Her husband is even worse. They don't care about OP and she needs to keep her distance.

Her mum is right after all, Aunt is a homewrecker and she needs that elbow room.

Your mum needs to grow up and stop the tantrums. She's too elderly for this. You'll need to involve someone she listens to so she gets off this distraction she's taking more serious than holding her grandchild.
what makes her Mother elderly? don't you think the 3 women involved here are kid?if her mother can accuse her aunt of husband snatcher is shows the aunt is around 30,if her mother could still be remarried it shows her mother is around 40 and OP will be around 20 0r 22, they are still a kid, what do you expect from them.

Mom is not in a dilemma regarding me. I never asked her to visit at all. Mom has suddenly expressed interest in visiting me after my aunty mentioned her visit,and is even bringing her new husband with her , if the visit happens. I did not object. I always respect my mom and her husband and have never put myself into their matter.

Regarding my aunty, she send the conversation between herself and her husband. She never mentioned this issue with her husband, it was my mom who called aunts husband, telling him to restrain his wife.

Please, listen to your mum. Without knowing anyone involved in this situation personally, I already deduced your aunt is going to cause more harm in your home if you keep her close enough. You can't share any secrets about you or your home with her. She threw you under the bus there and wouldn't hesitate to do it in future. Her husband is not smart either or your aunt wears the pants in that relationship.

It'll be hard henceforth for your mum or anyone in your family to trust you with information henceforth. You can't blame them. If you have a family WhatsApp group with your siblings, they're never gonna be comfortable discussing issues with you with what your aunt has done to your reputation.

Please repair your relationship with your siblings and your mum. Your aunt doesn't love you and it's a fact. I hope you think deeply about this and avoid her henceforth.

Rarely ever comment on family matters, but I dont feel you did well by your mother. Revealing a thing she told you privately was wrong, worse, screenshoting what she said and revealing it. That was very very bad, you threw your own mother under the bus. Find a way to recognize that and make apologies.

Even if she wasnt your mother what you did rather sucks.

OmugwoAunty:
Nairaland, please what should I do?

I gave birth 9 months ago and for some reason, my mom never expressed interest in visiting me and my child. She is a new wife now and I heard from some family members that when she wanted to come, her new husband said ‘your daughter has other people around, why are you worrying yourself’.

I did not take it personally at all. My mother has never been a dependable person. Me and my mom still talk everyday and my child is always on her status. This is her ONLY grandchild.

My mom’s elder sister’s (my aunty) youngest child is moving to my area. My aunty said that she’ll visit me during the move, and come and hold baby. She reached out to my mom and even told my mom that if they plan it, they can visit me together. My mom and my aunty are VERY close. I even consider my aunty my second mom in a way.

Suddenly, my mom starts calling me, saying she wants to plan her visit. I say okay. But with work and everything, my aunty will get here before her. She started telling me not to let my aunty into my house, saying that my aunty is a husband snatcher etc. she said my aunty will destroy my home. I tell her I don’t care about that. She started calling their mutual friends and telling them to tell me that my aunty is a husband snatcher. I did not fall for that.

Frustrated, she called my aunty and said that the truth is that my husband is uncomfortable. She said that MY husband is not from our town and that my husband’s people don’t like visitors. She said that I did not tell her about this out of respect.

My aunty called me and was apologizing, saying that she did not know. I responded and said that this is a lie. I even put my husband on the phone. Here’s my mistake - I sent her a screenshot showing my mom saying that she’s a husband snatcher and that’s why I should not let her into my home.

My aunty and I now agreed that we should let peace reign and that she won’t visit. She said she will still like to see me and we can meet somewhere. MATTER SUPPOSE TO END.

My mom decided to bring my aunty husband into this. She told my auntys husband that his wife is not respecting my husband’s wishes. My auntys husband now sent her my screenshot saying that he knows the real reason and that your child doesn’t even support you.

The screenshot has shattered my mom. She feels betrayed. My siblings who live with my mother are calling me a betrayer. I want to salvage the relationship between my siblings and I, not so much my mother. I have not spoken to any of them since the screenshot.

What do I do? How do I approach this.



How foolish and careless can you be to even set your mom against her sister knowing their relationship and what your mom said is just to trigger you to stop her visit?


Why don't you "extreme emotional beings" use your head or think before acting?

Is it everything you are told you reveal to the other person? Don't you know how to use diplomacy? Couldn't you just tell your aunt not to mind what your mom is saying and not reveal the husband-snatching part?


As a wife, you can't manage information and you're about to set your own family on fire. Don't go and set your husband against his own family and that might lead to your fall. It's not everything you hear you reveal.


People are really stupid these days.

As a 10 year old boy, my uncle would report my mom to me and I would tell my mom to correct her ways that her brother is not happy with whatever she did without revealing other details so i'd not cause more problems cos I know my mom. She's his only sister and he's her only brother from same mom and dad- though they step-siblings.

If I can do this at barely 10, I don't know why a married woman would be this careless.

Your mom and her sisters are going to be enemies forever because of your stupidity

Clap for yourself!

Obviously you are all kids commenting on this issue...

Her mum is the ORIGINAL HOME WRECKER and a very shameless one to booth...

She was ready to slander her own sister and son Inlaw who has no issue with her...

In other words, she was trying to cause problems and isolate this young lady, while in the same breath, she didn't have any care for her in the world..

She is a very shameless mother..

The lady had to exonerate herself than allowing HER INNOCENT family take the fall of her mum's devilish gameplay...

She has gotten fed up of her mum antics..

OP, just focus on your family and let them be.. They will come around later...

You were pushed by the EVIL moves of your mum to isolate you from others while seriously slandering your family.. Who does that?

Those siblings supporting her will also have a taste of their medicine.. Just wait...

In the meantime.. You can try and apologise while explaining how you felt and stay on your own... No one needs such insensitive parents around them...

The truth is that you did betray your mother, you exposed her in the worst ways. Additionally, you have no backbone and don’t know how to stand up for yourself. You lack diplomacy skills and you should work on yourself.

Apologise to your mother and hold your auntie accountable for exposing you to your mother too. But since you’re incapable of doing any of this, you should just be quiet, ignore everybody, and focus on your own family and work. Time will heal and you’ll get another chance to do better.
She was the one that exposed her mom. We all call our mothers to order if they say what's not right, but we don't go to town with everything they say.

She betrayed her mom. She should have put her mom in her place and demand proof of husband-snatching by her aunt or tell her to desist from making such claims.

From her story, you can see her mum had this expose coming. Do you know how she has been managing the situation until her mum moved a notch higher by trying to sow a long-term seed of discord between her husband, inlaws, and her own family while she enjoys her own new home in peace and harmony?

The mother went too far in her scheme, I believe pent-up frustrations and the need to clear her family's name pushed the OP to the wall.

I have advised her to apologize since the issue escalated to this point and stay on her own for now... A new mother with the pressure of a baby doesn't require these extra headaches.

The relationship was already destroyed before the screenshot. They had already blocked each other because my mom had already accused her directly of coming to snatch my husband.

Still at that, it wasn't in your place to come into it. I feel you should have left it at that. Let it be between them without you sending the screenshot. Your siblings feel you took your aunts side above them by sending the screenshot which is your undoing. Like I said earlier, get an elderly person your mum respects. Godspeed

While many blame you, let me analyze this issue as I see it. Based on your explanation
1. Your mom failed to put her priorities right after getting into her new marriage. Assuming this man is a Nigerian, he should understand the importance of Omugwo. Your mother should have put her foot down & let him know that you as her daughter are also important to her & so she would visit you for a while, especially being your 1st child. She however, chose to please the man at your expense. She should have set up those boundaries concerning how she relates with her children & the new husband, but she failed to do so.
2. After planning to come with her sister, she had to assassinate her sister’s reputation, which I think is due to the embarrassment of being overtaken by the sister in visiting the grandchild. She couldn’t stand someone seeing your baby before her especially because it would be a source of shame because she’s yet to visit. So she had to come up with lies in order to try & save face. She sounds like a manipulator. Things must go her way.
3. You didn’t stand up for yourself as a woman in her own home. You needed to stop your mom & let her know to stop causing chaos or else you’ll no longer be interested in her visiting. I understand she went reporting your Aunt to her husband. At that point, you should have canceled her visit. Stop dragging your husband & extended family into every issue that comes up. It’s not every dirty detail you’ll share with your husband. No matter how bad, she’ll remain your mother. Your husband may never respect her again. Learning to say YES & NO will save you a lot of problems in this life. All you needed to tell your Aunt was that you run your own home & your mother has her own home. She can invite who she wants and you can invite who you want.
4. There’s something called loving people from a distance. Sometimes for respect to reign, we need to give our loved ones done space & we need to make decisions and stand by them. Your mother owes everybody involved an apology. Let her know you felt like she was trying to destroy the relationship you have with your Aunt & with her behavior of lying to your Aunt’s husband, left you no choice but to expose her lies. As for your siblings, they’ll come around. You can call them individually & let them decide if they want to stay in touch with you. Stand your ground & let your Aunt know she’s welcome to your home. Next time, cover your family’s weaknesses from your husband, unless it’s something he’s seen with his eyes or one that needs his input such as financial or word of advise. We all are learners in this journey called life. Nobody has the monopoly of wisdom.

Aunt and her husband wey no get sense revealed that kind of information with no regards for the aftermath and it's her mum that's evil here? Dey play!

Her mum was right about the aunt, that aunt and her husband no get brain at all. They remind me of Teni( Taaoma's lil sis).

@OP
With the added information that both your mum and aunt are 60years +, please once again, stay far from that aunt. Your mum's got your back on this. That aunt go still do you strong thing if you no give yourself brain now. Walahi, she no rate you at all.

You are the one expounding Nollywood fables here...

Did you forget the part where the aunt volunteered to go visit her with the mum which shows she respects boundaries?

Did you also forget the aunt volunteered to visit but away from her home because of her close relationship with her niece, and to respect the wish of her younger sister?

Did you also forget that her mum slandered her aunt first?

Did you also forget that her mum decided to escalate the issue to the husband to the OP's aunt accusing her sister of unusual meddling in her daughter's home which was a lie?

Did you also forget that the OP's mum also went ahead to use TRIBALISM to slander the OP's husband and his family?

What did you think would happen if the entire family ran with the notion that the OP's husband and family were unwelcoming and disapproving of all his inlaws...

Isn't that a HOME WRECKING Mother?

She went about slandering her sister to break family bonds with her daughter, went about reporting her sister to her husband to cause problems, and then went about doing the ultimate to break her daughter's home with unfounded lies about her husband.

In all these, we should exonerate the mother entirely and put the entire blame on the OP for being forced to set the records straight...

Until you experience life... This is a Nollywood script to you with sentimental opinions that extended families are always the evil ones.
