You still don't get my point.
Worldwide, women find it difficult to get along with each other, and there are often frequent disagreements between many MILs and their DILs.
I was just bringing in a dimension into this discourse, the extent this disagreements can degenerate to, as opposed to other climes.
There was no need for that, as that dimension is a different topic altogether.

Yea
you have made good points, but I still stand on my opinion.
You cannot tell me with all authority that this problem is as rampant in these countries than in SSA and SEA, the cultural issue makes the DIL be at a disadvantage position in these regions

Okay look at it from this angle...

A MIL is more likely to instigate the family to push out the DIL to the streets in Africa, as opposed to Europe/America.
I have seen this with my eyes

A MIL is more likely to be a live in person in Africa than in the other clime

A MIL is more likely to suggest, and Even bring a second wife to the matrimonial home than in the other clime.

To cut the long story short, the MIL has more advantage here than in other climes.
She could be more brazen in her attempt to frustrate the DIL here than elsewhere


I hope you see my point?
That's not the topic here, except you are saying this 'advantage' automatically makes every(for emphasis) Nigerian MILs prejudiced against their DILs.

I'm honestly confused too.

Like the women have sexual relationships with their sons instead of a maternal one.

It's only emotionally imbalanced women that will have these problems. Because it's a clear case of not understanding that the role of his wife and that of yours as mother are different.

You will have problems with all the women he comes in contact with because they have come to steal your baby's.

Instead of enjoying your older adulthood with your husband on one remote island reminiscing your youth.
True, but the mistake many young women make, is that they carry this mindset into marriage, forgetting that not all mils are like that, if one wears a red glass, they tend to see things in shades of red(I know someone that always says this) and it's true, people can see things that are not there, so it's best to make sure to check all angles while looking.

she can,some people are just sadist..happened to my cousin till her husband died
if she's a sadist with everyone then she's a bad person, therefore would make a bad MIL, I already acknowledged that but if she was mean to only your cousin, then ask your cousin why her mil hates her, if your cousin is good and smart like I think you paint her, then she must know why the woman doesn't like her, could be anything, there's always something.

May her people find the strength to move on, it's really a pity.

Pidggin:


My mind is not messed up, the woman in question clung to her son like one should cling to a husband. Is it that you are not aware of some women substituting their husbands for sons? Why will a MIL who has her own husband to take care of move into her sons house leaving husband alone. Suit yourself.
And this automatically means every MIL is like that? As for the woman/boy you are even using as instance, he is only but 15, not married yet, so how does your 'moving into house' theory apply there? So a mother can't hug her son again?

Go have your mind fixed jor.

But why is the camera guy not under 'the anointing'?
He was paid to do a job so his mind is disconnected, that is one of the reasons why a cameraman wouldn't fall under anointing.

What do u expect ? when daughter in laws will be asking the younger brother of her husband to do dishes . The mother in law won't be happy with this when she finds out. Therefore the aggression toward daughter in law. Mother tends to love their boys even when they are married but for the father , he doesn't care cos he feels you are man enough.
Why can't he do dishes, is he not a human being who eats with dishes? Even if he doesn't use dishes sef, can't he be of help in the house?

It is more of an African /SEA countries problem than say Europe/America IMO because The former are more particular about extended family stuff than say in Europe, where family members are more individualistic/mind their business.

This is my observation tho, because my cousins in Germany hardly get involved in each other's lives, and their mother is living with their dad (my uncle) in the countryside most of the time, and is not inclined to visit all the time, as opposed to Naija MIL that will always find opportunity to visit/breeze in/get involved in the son's life.

The more individualistic a society is, the less likely in laws (Not just mil) get involved/cause friction in the family.
hope you understand my point? ?
I beg to differ.

It is more about being emotionally healthy than visiting one another, than what you term individualistic society, the US is a very individualistic society, yet this issue plays there and so is New Zealand, Australia and a bunch of other countries but MILs and DILs disagree there.

Mothers are very protective of their son. You wouldn't understand until you have raised one for 27+ years and a lady comes in one day to take away what she has laboured for.

The mother would always feel no one can take care of her child like her. What most DIL should do is assure MIL that her son is in safe hands. It's that simple but most of you would rather compete with her or take her head on, which often backfire
Na wa o, does he stop being her son because he is married? How exactly does extending family, mean taking away what was laboured for?

Condemning it and doing same in secret even by the so called men of God is the true definition of HYPOCRISY.
How does this apply? Is 'Hypocrisy' a tenet of Christianity?
