Yes. The trappings of comfort that makes us forget the laws of God. I have job, money, good husband therefore I don't need to honor my mother. That is literally the meaning of what you typed up there. Why are you here seeking advice then?

Seeking advice on how to navigate my siblings. My mother and my relationship have been bad for over a decade, before I even turn 18,so I’ve lost interest since.

Look... It was wrong for your mum to call her biological sister a husband snatcher and still went ahead to tell other folks about the fact that her own sister is a husband snatcher. You biological mum is the real betrayer here for instigating this whole quagmire and you must NOT let your siblings guilt-trip you about any betrayal even though your mother has your baby's picture as her DP.

In any event if your mother is indisposed or isn't alive, would you NOT find a way to take care of your baby alone or with the assistant of your spouse and maid?

Next time though, you have to keep your mouth shut when someone as close to you as your mother tells you a personal secret like that because a lot of women cannot handle secrets for too long and they would spill the beans.

Take care. wink


As you can see I’ve been taking care of my baby without family help for 9 months now. I did not request help from anybody especially because I live far away.

It was not a family secret. Mom and aunty already called both of themselves husband snatchers and blocked each other. The screenshot was me acknowledging that I know why my mom didn’t want to visit and that I did not support my mom.

@OmugwoAunty
You can't be at war with your mum and expect your siblings to be cool with you. The fact they're on her side makes it even worse. It's either they're blindly devoted or they understand what you don't.

At this stage, it all boils down to how forgiving your mum is. If your priority is your siblings, then you need to forgive your mum and seek her forgiveness too. Call your siblings or send them an epistle on your POV. Admit your mistakes and let them know you won't repeat them.

Last warning, avoid that aunt of yours as she's proved your mum right already. Your aunt can't be trusted and she doesn't love you. If you think your mum is selfish, your aunt is worse than your mum. I ain't a prophet but I see your relationship with this aunt leading to chaos in your home. Your mum knows her sis and let's leave it at that.


I agree with you. I actually just heard from one of my siblings and she’s talking like nothing even happened. So it seems like everybody is calming down.

I’m deeply disappointed in my aunty as well.

I love our African tradition of support system. However, times have changed. The family members you bring in may undo you, so be attentive to how more evil we as Nigerians have all become.
Maybe your mum is also avoiding temptation with your husband. She may know what she is capable of & may not want to snatch your husband from you. That may be why she is keeping her distance. Or her new husband who is now her crown, frowns at the visit. In that instance, there is absolutely nothing you can do about it. He hubby is the leader. You also CANNOT disobey your hubby, can you??
God may be blessing you in disguise, but like typical women, it’s your way or the highway!
What if you live abroad & your mum is unable to secure a visa? Will you still be this distraught?!
Think outside the box and have you & your hubby fix this challenge amicably between you. Both of you enjoyed the act, so both of you should face the consequences.

Not distraught about her not visiting. I have been doing it for nine months. I have never asked for her help even once. I never even brought it up. Her sister is passing by and chose to visit, I did not ask.

The concern was how to repair the damage with my siblings, not her.

Did you mother even attend your wedding? Or una nor do marriage?

She did not attend wedding. She was not given enough ‘time’ to prepare. Like I said, she’s not dependable or present (for myself and siblings). All of us still manage to keep our relationship.

BALLOSKI:


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!


They were already enemies before the screenshots. They were fighting each other directly and she directly had accused her sister about coming to my house to wreck my home. They had already blocked each other.

The damaging part was that I said something around the fact that , I know what my mom said about you and I don’t support her.

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.

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.

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.

Sincerely, you made a big error by sending the screenshot. I don't blame your siblings for calling you a betrayer. You shouldn't have sent the screenshot to your aunty. Now you have destroyed your mum's relationship with your aunt and also your relationship with your mum and siblings.
My advice for you is to go meet someone you know your mum respects a lot and use him or her to beg your mum. Also, find means to get your mum and aunty back, though that will be hard. God help you through

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.

You're not a good human being.
Common sense didn't tell you that sharing such screenshot will cause problem?
If I were your mother, I'll forever not talk to you again as a disgrace of a child that you are.
Also, YOU SAID THAT YOU GAVE BIRTH 9 MONTHS AGO, WHAT DO YOU STILL NEED A BABYSITTER FOR?
ARE YOU THAT LAZY AND UNORGANISED?

I do not need a babysitter. I’ve been doing this by myself for 9 months. My aunty was just passing by my town and was stopping by. I did not invite my aunty to visit.

I’m not interested in my mom like my post said. I’m more worried about my siblings.

You are not wise and you are not loyal. I feel like calling u mumu. Your first allegiance should be to your mom regardless of her flaws. She was trying so desperately to not have her sister visit you before she did. Why didn't you take the hint? Look how far you went to discredit your mom... your own mother... even sending screenshot. What were you trying to prove or achieve? I hope you are happy now. Even here on a faceless forum, you still call your mother unreliable... she is not reliable and you and your siblings did not die in infancy or childhood...when will you people learn to give your parents honor? It's one of the governing laws of the universe set by God Himself! The other day one nzuzu was insulting his father here... later he will wonder why his life is not doing fine. God forbid children that insult and expose their parents to public ridicule, amen!

Understood. I have no allegiance to my mom and she didn’t even really raise me. My life is doing fine, I have job, husband and child. I would not have said anything until people started accusing my husband of being wicked and barring my aunt from visiting. My mother told people to warn my aunt from visiting because my husband doesn’t want her there. M

That’s why I released the screenshot.

Your mother is simply obeying her husband's rules. Is your father alive or your mom divorced your dad and went to marry another husband?

Divorced. I agree that she should obey her husband. That’s why I did not fight her with her not visiting.

Sorry I have to say this, your family seems highly dysfunctional. Your mum is newly married and with a new man, you are married and with a baby…the issue isn’t just your relationship with your mum/family. Something is wrong…your mum’s younger sister being accused of husband snatching…your screenshot!! Who does that? Why would you screenshot your mum’s conversation with you and show to your aunty??

Madam, any reasonable person would avoid your family. You all display the RED FLAGS. Pls post your photo and details so we would all avoid you all. There’s so much acrimony, so much malice, so much gossiping, there’s just so much of all the negative vibes.

Put a huge sign in front of your house reading…AVOID THIS FAMILY FOR YOUR OWN GOOD.

Like I said before, I sent the screenshot because other people started saying that my husband is wicked for not allowing my aunty to come and visit. I wanted to vindicate myself. We have had soo many visitors and we have an open home.

I need to clarify. I told my mother that my aunty will not visit, but that I will still see her and greet her. My mother was still upset, she even mentioned that how can her sister meet her grandchild before her.

I insisted that I would still see her, that’s when she went to my auntys husband. I sent the screenshot because she started telling people that it’s my husband that won’t allow my aunty to visit. I wanted to vindicate myself and my name. People started asking me what kind of husband did I marry that will bar family from coming over. My home is always open. My uncle and his family even visited, only my mother refused to come.

I cannot visit her yet personally, because my baby is too young to travel long journey. I also don’t think it’s my place to be dragging my child up and down.

Family / My Mom Refused To Do Omugwo And She’s Causing Havoc by OmugwoAunty: 2:11pm On Nov 07, 2023
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.
