@op. Tell your wife to find job for her siblings and they will be able to cater for themselves. Their coming to your place will be reduce and they will be fine

easy for u to say.

my cousin told me he was coming to spend 1 month with me, he works alright, I told him he will take care of his own feeding.

i didnt hear from him again
that's a very wrong move,that your cousin will not forget that statement till his or her dieing days,it is better for him to come whatever is available will be managed,I had such experience when my two cousins were living for a brief period with me in enugu,my wife grew tired and told me she will stop feeding them I said NO,we shall manage,but now one of those my cousins got married to a very very wealthy Tyre importer in onitsha and the other is now working in a big oil company ,till date the reverence and respect they have for me and my wife is limitlessness, little do they know what really happened behind the scene.

Op your case is even better that your wife is bringing something to the table, as I type this I am the soul provider for the family, I mean even common salt I buy, wife doesn't do anything thing as I am typing this her younger brother who is managing with a salary of 30k impregnate a lady and she was operated through CS, her mom on hearing this came to my house with two of her children age 14 and 9. Not minding the ungrateful wife that I will give money to stock foodstuffs she will be complaining money is not enough yet she will not provide anything, she nagg alot and no respect for me. It very wrong to Marry from a poor family background.
hnmmmmm many young men thought marriage is a bed of roses and about sex not knowing what beyond it is above that,the day a man married a jobless selfish and ungrateful woman is the day he dig his grave,I really feel for you and understand you just take it easy,my advice for you is that don't go for large family atleast 2kid is ok and let your wife go to learn a trade.goodluck

Very simple solution.

1 Go to Oyingbo market and buy a big bag of unpeeled Egusi.

2 When next they come to your house, put off the TV, say something like 'Aunty Chizoba and Uncle Pius, when you finish eating, help me peel small egusi".

3 Use paint rubber and pack a heavy heap of egusi in front of them let them peel.

Sit back, relax and see what God will do.

No need for a long story, I got married 2 yrs ago, during our friendship I mean courtship it was very sweet and lovely, we got married 2 yrs ago and I have 1 kid,the problem i have is that, the girl family come to greet almost every time and when they come they eat like elephant, anything eatable they eat it, they don't use eye to see bread tea or butter in my room, they will finish it within a day, I will end up spending a lot during the time, when i noticed that it becomes offen i started telling my wife that I am broke, I don't have money, although my wife is very nice she earn salary of 40k a month, and do funds and cook many times with her money, before now I was it okay, we are like a family, now i just realized that it making me not think straight within a week oil and cooking things we bought will just finished the cartoon of indomitable that last the 2 of us before 1 month or month plus will just finish within 4 days of thier stay, some time 3 of her family will come once and another set will come again, my wife is the first daughter, the poor parents gave birth to 9 kids all in the name of looking for a boy, so she said although the 2 boys is number 7 and 9 position, her parents should be around man 60s and the woman 45yrs old. so now I am tired of the marriage, I don't know how to talk to my wife about it, that I don't like how thier family do come offend since we got married, my families has never come to sleep over in my place for a night talkless of spending holiday in my place my parents gave birth to only 3 of us 2 boys 1 girl.
Now i am just tired I can't be responsible for someone else burden why give birth to many kids and unable to train them, i plan to have only 2 or 3 kids only, and her family want to make me be like thier father sitting at home doing nothing depending on pension for survival, i have realized that I can't achieve what i should have achieved if i continue life this way,
before our marriage we agreed no family members is coming to stay with us , the issue now is they don't stay but come to eat and go, it a big cheating to me I am tired for real, even if I say I don't have money and she use her own. The money should have be able to do other important thing . She spending is also affecting me a lot, we should have a be able to buy land or car or live well, not feeding battalion. I am tired please I need advice on what to do


I hear some suggesting that you relocate..you don't run from your problems but face them. Besides how does running solve this issue? They will only locate you wherever and the parasitism continues. In my opinion, I think there should be an intense dialogue with ur wife making her see reasons why that cannot continue. Open her eyes to the demerits of allowing such things..your obligation and loyalty lies with ur immediate family and no one else..besides, Your family is still young and needs to grow.

See me sounding like a married man grin

For those suggesting he relocate that may not even work, In my case my wife mother travel all the way from Jos to abuja with two adult male children to come and visit the son that impregnant a lady outside wedlock, my question is if she is coming to abuja why bring a boy of 12 and 9 years to come to my house in abuja.

Secondly no body should blame the opp from marrying from a family of 8 children, life orientation matter alot, I am the only male child from a family of five children yet for once I have not step my leg to my in law house or call them for any form of assistance.

I understand your worries. Sir, I know that you knew or saw this coming( that is why it's good to stop what you can't continue) they are her relations, they are her cross, she can't ignore them away. It's now left for you to sit your wife down maybe to minimize their coming or solutions to it. You can still be helping with the little you have, it's better than to ignore them totally.
Wife material sighted. U can help a man build his home. Keep it up.

There is a situation on ground and you are not addressing it but narrating how you do things to your in-law and indirectly calling OP a poor fellow, whereas it's the same poverty that made your in-laws to come to you for food, what is bad is bad whether rich or poor, don't cast all your burden on someone else especially if you also can't bear 10% of it... Op I feel for you, take decisive actions and so what is right for your peace of mind and sanity... Yes it's a thing of joy to render help to one's in law but not at the detriment of one's progress..

Bro.... as man of the house... you need to put your foot down. Ber family members are coming to eat period. Why would they not come if they can feast everytime they do? You shouldn't tell her to stop them from visiting.... but what you can do is cut out the feasting. Sit down with your wife and make out a budget.... how her money is to be spent... let her salary be the one responsible for feeding the family for the month ... and whatever else so that she has just enough for her personal maintenance. You can even settle for a part to send for her parents. Yours for other stuff and X amount goes to savings for the house and car... leaving you with the same amount or even less for your personal maintenance and to send to send to your parents. Agree to stick with the plan. Then raise the topic about her family members and their feeding... that we can no longer afford that since it will disrupt our plans for the future. In reality... I'm almost sure she will agree... but relatives will continue to visit.... and she will continue to feed.. business as usual. Do not intervene. When she cannot uphold her end of the agreement ... she will reach out to you. That's when you hold your ground. If there is nothing to eat... then let it be.... allow the child to suffer as well.... child suffers mother suffers even more... and worse because she will know the child is suffering because if her. Allow this to happen... only then she will put an end to the family feasting frenzy.

God bless you, that guy sounds like he never did what he boasted of doing, if I leave my parents house to enjoy what they can't afford me in another man's house, what does it make my parents no be poverty? And he thinks he is wise by stylishly calling the couple poor..

Kai this kind feeling can pain most especially if you're the ambitious type. You feel as if you plans are being derail by some unserious gluttons. I suspect my next flat neighbor is expirencing same thing op, this an hard working guy even goes to work at time on Sunday but his efforts are not showing in their room. No sitting chairs just empty space with 3kids with both wife and husband family feeding of the young man effort without the wife doing nothing. I felt for him. How can someone grow with such burden

It's only food they come to eat and your body is peppering you like this? What if they make a huge request as inlaws, what Will you now do?

Imagine, you're even complaining about the money their sis is spending on them to feed. You are so stingy! Abeg change.

If you are in a position to even feed someone, thank God. Stop complaining.

If you don't want them in your house any longer, tell your wife. Period!

It's a problem you are expecting much from your wife's income. Just stick to a budget(feeding allowance), she will adjust bcoz of her child. It's her responsibility to talk to her siblings. You must Chanel 2/3 of your income to profitable investment. Focus on your immediate family while not making enemies of your in-laws

Exactly

It's poverty that will make someone cry about his in laws coming to finish his food


@Op

Learn not to only live for just you, your wife and kids

Expand your mindset
That thinking only breeds poverty

People that cry like you barely make it above average in life

Allow your in laws to come and eat from you
Even if they finish what you bought

When you don't cry over there eating
And you expand your mindset
the subconscious infinite intelligence
Will create way for you to expand your income and earnings

I have seen this practically


Had two relatives then
One was always crying about people eating his family food

Another relative opened his house and allowed people to eat whatever they like
He made sure every one was satisfied


End result

The relative that was always crying and complaining about eating his food retained very average
Never really making it big

But the other one that opened his home to visitors went on to become extremely rich
Taking care of many families up till today


Infact my observation from that experience guides me in my own Home even today

I ensure any visitor to my house feast like a King
Food people will eat ain't any problem what's over

People that cry like you always remain average in life
Change your mindset
Your wife even has a liberal mind

What your in laws eat can never make you poor
Rather it will bring blessings and open doors to you

This is exactly the problem my elder bro is facing in his marriage his in-laws are all adult in their 20s and 30s that refused to do nothing for a living Some are even older than him. Their mother and the last child lives there since they got married and the others comes on daily basis. You can hardly go there without meeting 3 or 4 of them at a time. Any time I go to the state he is residing I only go to his house to see his kids and I most go that same day because I don't feel comfortable in his house cos of his In-laws.
