My Father sent his mum packing from the house after she had blatantly refused to allow his new wife then (my mum) have any peace at home. Infact one day my grandma came from the village with a girl and started evicting my mum from the house. Needless to say my mum stood her ground and threw my grandma out of the house with the girl. When my dad returned from work and saw his mum outside, he found out what happened, gave her money to go find a hotel to stay the night and return to the village with an instruction not to return until she was ready to respect and accept his wife.

Needless to say, but after many years (over 6 years) of no communication, they reconciled and became the best of friends and became even closer than my Dad was to her.

I remember when I went through a serious fight with my mum and went to my Dad to mediate, he said something to me that I would never forget; He said I know your mum is wrong and I have told her in my own way, but if you expect me to take sides with you on this matter against my wife then you are stupider than I would have thought. My dad always made it clear that in every situation, his wife comes first even before us his kids.

That is the same mantra I hold till this day. Find a good woman and marry her and hold her close to your heart. Protect her with all you have against everyone and everything including yourself and even your kids. Never make your wife feel like she is an outsider, never take sides with anybody against her. Never reprimand her in the presence of a third party. Treat her like you would treat yourself as she is an extension of you not a third party.

Even my mother knows she can't touch my wife.

Wow!!!
shocked shocked shocked shocked shocked shocked shocked

Bravoooo!!!

Now, this is just plain wrong. Instead of countering @MadCow's argument with superior points, all yhu do is measure balls and d1cks and denigerate his family. I hope yhu're not married because if yhu really act this way in real life, even yhur mum should be wary of yhu, leave all the NL show of love. That @MadCow has his priorities does not mean he loves his mother any less than yhu do yhurs. I align with his argument and I'm a confirmed mummy's boi. Funnily enough, I showed her this post this evening. She reasons alongside @MadCow's assertion. She even said that if the man dares drive his wife on account of this issue for a day, that he has lost control of his home forever, his mother may as well move in and take over headship of the home. As I mentioned to @Freecocoa, let's remove the hierachy and family ties and treat this case as between two feuding women. Judge it from that angle and advise OP therefrom.
But then it's not just two women feuding, is it? How then can I treat it as such?

Too tough sef, had to run around the block 2x everyday grin

Mama must let it slide oh... Afterall she started the slap fest , even though we aren't told what prompted the slap, could be her ill words towards mama, we don't know. but a possibility. I mean she says mama is diabolic, that's huge. Saying that to mama's face could land her a slap for sure.

I hope the DIL apologize and move on. Finito

Abeg I wan call again grin

The reason why I think the wife takes greater blame.

MIL might have gotten offended, thinking "how can this small girl be insulting me like this" and gave DIL a resounding slap, DIL being the " be you who, I no send" type showed mama say she doesn't give a hoot.grin, this type of people are hardly innocent.

The truth is that, no matter how much one's parents respects them, there can and always is a time when they expect you to recognize authority, it is a very good quality everyone should have, DIL doesn't seem like someone to make excuses for in cases like this.

For MIL to go straight to take pictures doesn't mean she's bossy, my mum is one of the gentlest and most humble people I know, her kind of humility even pisses us off sometimes(no exaggeration) yet she will do something like take the pictures because she's genuinely happy, DIL could easily get those pictures back, she is not in any way supposed to fight because of it, an oppressed person doesn't behave this way.

I particularly like what you said about authority.
It's astonishing that peeps be giving reasons why a young wife will raise her hands against an elder one.
Frankly.

Lesson though;
it's not everyone that opens a thread about counseling has something good to pass on.
The messenger is as /even more important than the message.

'nuff said.

This thread should end.

What they might lose? Haha! If you believe your remedy is better than Madcow's, then I must protest. A married man cannot afford to think like just any man, not if he wants peace in his home. Your solution solves nothing, don't expect to have a happy marriage if you do not care to consider your wife's (or mother's) happiness by sucking in your pride and delving deeper into the issues.

In this case, the mother had no right to slap another woman in her own house for her own belongings; use your discernment, this was wrong. Both should be told of what you perceived to be their errors, but you'd be wrong to send your wife away from her home due to the actions initiated by your mother (who will comfortably return to her home). That is not justice and it will only beget resentment, and wifey'd wish she punched, not scratched! Trust me, ain't no one looking to be friends after that lipsrsealed
[b] Utter sentimental crap...the sort that should get the OP serious marital trouble with the wife pretty much encouraged to do worse maybe poison the OP if ever she suffers any indiscretions like all humans must go through,if you ask us.Then when you now look at rights you'd noticed a sinster pattern here..the wife being obsessed with her turf and going eyeball to eyeball with a greater extention of the OP,a matriach, a living institution, this is akin to desecrating a hallowed altar or shrine for that matter,what happened to 'stoop to conquer'? That shows a massive disrespect to the OP nevermind the OP's brothers,sisters,father even kinsmen,worse still the OP,his kids stands a greater danger of being isolated from the greater commune - a development that could negatively affect them in critical aspects of their young lives- if he doesn't show who is in charge here because no one will want anything to do with a poisoned apple of a family.Yes, it is better for worse death do us part blah blah but a tree cannot make a forest alone-this is not America-especially if that tree's innocent children face the injustice of being cut off due to the mad indiscretions of the mother and the bumbling hesitancy of the father(in Africa the child becomes the bizness of everyone including the extended family).The matriach might be wrong slapping the wife but all that flew outta the window the moment she battered the matriach especially if the wife cannot do the same to her own mother.OP is not lookin to make friends btw the two-that ship has since sailed since the wife didn't voluntarily leave after the slap- but should look out to solving this matter laying down the law and boundaries but not before dishing out punitive measures to both parties...and we believe the wife should bear the greater brunt of it to get her to reformation,remorse and true repentance( how else is he gonna set down markers if he's percieved as a wuss?) while the mother who beared most of the bodily harm should recieve medical treatment before a serious telling off by her son with threats or bluffs of cuttin her off completely and maybe an extended family censure.

None of my family members will follow me to apologize grin which kain yeye apology be that, we all know it's an eye service one.

Had a thorough thought concerning this MIL issue and came to a conclusion that people are product of their upbringing & experience ( I've said that before on Male teacher thread too) ... Example; I Read a post on this same thread about how the poster's Father stopped relation with his mother (poster's grandma) because she had a heated altercation with poster's mom. His father never spoke to none of his relatives including his mother, till his mother's passing ( no money for food , nothing from a son you raised & go hungry for to pay his tuition) .. What advice do you expect from such person Biko?

I'll look for that post.. I'm coming

My Dad didn't Talk to his mother and his siblings for 16yrs until she died and he wasn't even moved .... why?...she gave him same choice "your wife or me?" And knowing the kinda women his wife(my mum) and his mother were he gladly chose his wife over her and his siblings took the side of his mum....and why all this? simply because my mum called her a Witch to her face!! .... and when my Dad was Confronted you know what he told his mum "if you didn't act like a witch she wouldn't call you one ".

What's my point?..... why would your mum slap a grown married woman if she wasn't looking for trouble?.... better stick to your wife..... your mama time don pass .... After the Bible sef talk am.

Just imagine, and they usually blame it on bible saying a man shall leave his parents and become one flesh with the spouse, how does that mean disrespecting and abandoning them? If you become one with a man, doesn't that automatically mean whatever is his also becomes yours? Why then won't you treat his mum like yours?

I do know that there are exceptionally bad MILS, so are there also bad DILS, it is not fair to push the blame on MIL always, especially not in cases like this one.
