this kind of advice is why men will continue to think women are dumb.


The MIL had no such right to slap the woman and the man's response shows that he would never have defended his wife even if she didn't slap her MIL back. Although the woman should have apologised immediately for slapping an elder, but the way elders of nowadays conduct themselves shows that they do not deserve the respect we were taught to give them. This is not to say that one shouldn't be kind to an elder.

I will only show an elder respect when they treat themselves with such unless there is proof that they are mentally ill.

After all what did the elders do to your country when they had a choice to change things for the better.

My brother is not meant to beat her. He is supposed to caution her according to tradition as my father instead of me retaliating. That is what I mean

Rubbiish:

Drop your address...

Mothers tends to act differently when faced with issues but that doesn't give the lady the right to slap her MIL back... That was the only way she could show her displeasure concerning what the DIL did, trust me if her son was the one that did such, he would have received same treatment as well. She slapped her not because she hated her but because that's the way that came to her mind to reprimand her not minding who's involved.
MIL are just like our mothers at home, are you trying to say that had it been it was her mom that slapped her, she would have retaliated in same measure?
The way mother A handles issues is totally different from the way mother B will react.
Let's keep in mind that mothers are human and are bound to make mistakes as well, the best she should have done is to let it go, then talk to her MIL calmly after the issue must have died down.. Believe me, the MIL will apologize for the slap and further advice her on how to run her home.
Where I'm having issues with the man is sending her outta the house. I'm not in support of that atall.

funmisticqueen:
so if I am your wife and my father slaps you,will you give him your other cheek? Slapping back was obviously self defense

ElsonMorali:


You don't know the meaning of self defense woman.

Then there's no point getting married to her son.. Know the family you are being married into to avoid issues like this.
The lady should exhibit patient... She clearly lacks it! If you can't raise your hands to slap your mother who birthed you no matter her offence.. You clearly have no right to raise it on your MIL as well

ImaIma1:


She is not her daughter and she doesn't have the right to interfere in their issues and even slap her. She overstepped her boundaries and got what she deserved.

I am not saying the lady should have slapped back. But the of mama had respected herself and butted out, she would have been respected too.

funmisticqueen:
extend this train of thought to your mother and MIL

funmisticqueen:
GBAM.

teresafaith:
The foolish woman deserves more than the slap.

What even gave her the gut to slap the poor girl in the first place, I swear if I'm the girl I'll break her head and if her stupid son tries any rubbish, e go follow im mama chop.

Arrant nonsense

Mtcheewww!!

Most of them say things they wouldn't do in real life... On social media, everyone is a "boss" "commando"

Michelle55:

No point bickering words with you.. It clearly shows you will beat up your whole generation if provoked. Enjoy your myopic way of reasoning! It sure looks good on you.
Namaste!

funmisticqueen:
what is this one saying aren't you the one supporting violence

AmazonTopaz:
Mother in law na amebo woman.
How can you slap a grown adult.
The man self is silly who even owns the house that he has the audacity to send the woman packing.That is why I must have my own house or we both own it so that nonsense like sending anybody out would not see the light of the day.

The mother in law got what she deserve for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. The daughter in law slapping her was the reaction she asked for.

funmisticqueen:
Something similar happened to my Aunt when I was little. I cant remember the details but she married a Yoruba man, and she and her mother in law had an altercation in the kitchen concerning what her husband would eat. Things got heated and the MIL slapped her. Her husband came to the kitchen when he heard the slap and didn't reprimand his mother. My aunt held her cheek for a long time and went to back her baby, went to the kitchen, carried a raw egg then walked round the compound once. She then started saying some stuff in Benin for like 5 mins, threw the egg on a tree and went inside to sleep.

Next morning she packed out of the house, not too long afterwards her husband and mother In law started purging and both had to be hospitalized. They were discharged some days later but when they ate food made in the house the diarrhoea started again. Nobody told them to come and beg her. When they did she came home prayed for them followed them home and cooked peppersoup for them. The diarrhoea stopped at once.

She and her Mil have respected themselves since then

No be only "pray" for them, Asin because of "slap",
Your aunty is a traditionalist...
