She is not your maid.

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.

KosiGee:
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.

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?

I agree, that’s why I didn’t bother her at all. I didn’t ask for Omugwo.

OmugwoAunty:
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.

OmugwoAunty:
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.
