You have no blame at all for waiting this long

Now that you confronted your mother in law is the best time to do so

As for your wife, sge packed out herself
Just relax, she is waiting for you to look for her

I think you should allow her stay with them untill she us fully ready to stop taking orders and control from her

Meanwhile just be watching them and their drama till it's time for family meeting

They are the one to call for family meeting, not you
The meeting will seat on top of your mother in law head

Be prepared to express yourself that day and voice out all you have without reservations

There in your presence your mother in law will be giving a stern warning and after thaf take your wife home

When you get home, change am for her and take charge of your home

I think he should just be patient and watch them. Just because of his children. He can't win the war. Except the wife decide to liberate herself which she won't.

MrBrownJay1:
you should have done that the FIRST time the mother interfered in your family matters...11yrs of letting her mother believe she was in charge, is way too long and now a waste of energy to try to correct it.

It's not as easy as you think. Seems you're not married. If you are, you will know the power of "3P's"
Prayer, patience and perseverance

Bro marriage isn't a child's play. I'm in your shoes. My eyes don see pass your own. Your wife will come back. Just let it slide. It's a war you can't win. At least your mother in-law will now know her boundary a little. Expect more. If I tell you my own story, you will kneel and thank God that yours isn't as bad as mine. Here I am, still surviving the storm. It's not been easy 11 years of marriage for me. Just be patient especially because of your children.
