I disagree with this advice.

[@ziggypip2938]

If the son is torn, it’s his mom’s fault!!! As a mother I taught my son to put his wife first!!

[@sugarhiccup2584]

No..put your mom first your wife can betray you but ur mom can never

[@erinnreed7697]

Men have a right to keep their moms first if they choose… They just don’t need to be married. Those same men wouldn’t want to play second fiddle their father-in-laws. They want their needs met, and rightfully so. However, they should be willing to meet their wife’s needs. Everyone has a place, both moms and wives. The problem occurs when someone is not in their place.

[@Suzidhoom]

@Ziggypip2938 If I had a Mother-in-law like You, I'd make sure my husband put You first and then Me!💐💖💞

[@MrDedvalson]

Nope. If the husband is confused he is responsible for his own behavior.

[@faceless_blogger]

Wife will certainly betray you, if you keep putting your mother first !!

[@happyinparis]

It is because mothers of sons often have a hard time letting go. I once had a mother-in-law from hell. It was shockingly bad. It destroyed the marriage. I promised myself that I would be different. I told myself that if I didn't like my son's choice for his wife, no one would ever know. I was blessed. When my son married, I was so happy for him. He married a lovely girl who was a single mom to a beautiful little boy. The "father" had abandoned them. I love her very much. This young lady apologized to me for not waiting for my son. That made me cry. I told her she never needed to apologize for having a beautiful baby. I told her that blood means nothing to me. I said I wanted to be his grandmother if she was okay with that. He was my first grandson, and he has a very special place in my heart. I remember one time when my son and daughter-in-law got into an argument, my son came crying to me. I told him to go buy her some flowers and go home and work it out. I also said, "I know you. You probably owe her an apology." He smiled, nodded, and went home to his wife where he belonged. A few years later, I met a wonderful man who had a wonderful mother. She was a jewel. My husband and I were married for 33 years. He passed away 3 years ago. He loved my son like his own, and he loved our daughter-in-law and grandchildren. If you want to fill your life with happiness and love, treat your daughter-in-laws with respect, love, and know your boundaries!

I REALLY NEEDED THIS AND I REALLY HOPE YOU ARE MY MOTHER IN LAW 😢😢😢, i am exhausted 😩 lately i had a fight with my mother in law, actually i am a very silence person, talk when needed, but yeah sometimes i pretty chit-chatting you know when woman meet woman. I do not know who spinning and made up the stories in the in-law’s family but i guess i spoke too much with my younger brother’s wife, my mistakes because i trust her but then yeah i overly speak about something related to “in-law” but we are exchanging stories because she does that as well which is talking about our in-law, so i thought it is fair for us exhanging stories but then one day she spinning the stories and she told my in law that i feel jelous with the baby which is from the other younger brother’s baby 😢😢 and that make me sad. I know i can’t give grandchildren to my in law for almost 5 years but that does not make me wanted and necessarily have to jelous for someone’s baby. That’s nonsense. So my in-law believed her and blaming me why i am jelous etc and at first i try to be calm as possible but u know since 5 years i try to be nice with in law then after that suddenly i’m exploded because everything they said all wrong about me. But they do not want to listen to me and keep on making me looks guilty more and more. So i said to them i do not want to see them until my broken heart healed and recovered and maybe until one of them make an apology. Now already a month. Pray for me the best please. I need someone to cheer me up. 😢😢😢

There's no 2 Ways about it!

[@cwayzums]

My story is that my husband is an inly child and when we got married, the in-laws offered for us to live with them. I said no. Fast forward and we get our own house and she reminds him of his promise (before we even got together) that he would have her live with him whenever he had his own place. I always stood my ground and said no. Now as a mother of boys, and as a future mother-in-law someday, I am raising my sons to do chores, pick up after themselves and help out around the house. Their spouses are not going to be doing everything.

Please do not let in laws live with you. All happy at first then they show their true side and jealousy comes out and kitchen wars and pettiness and wickedness . Ugh.

This is nothing new I grew up in the 1970's and my Grandmother has passed on years ago now my mother is in her 80's and almost turned into my grandmother who my mother used to complain about just like you are. I catch my mother saying the exact things my mother used to complain my grandmother used to say. She lived with us for about 2 years after she lost most of her retirement in an investment scam and lost her BF of 20 years. My wife couldn't take it anymore hardest thing for me was ask my mother to find somewhere else to live I had to find an apartment about mile from us. Then she found a great house during the market crash she had saved enough money from a house sale didn't end up in that fraud to buy this home back in 2012. Really saved her situation because apartment rents are high now.

[@user-fs6ou3fk9p]

I started off soft and kind. I've learned, after 43 years, that I had to set boundaries. She's so much worse because of this, but it's necessary. I'm still kind, but firm. She wants private information and then gossips with others in the family or formulates an inaccurate opinion and tells me about it. I still don't share our private info, and she is so difficult, but I don’t give in. She always had a nanny or housekeeper, and this wasn't known by my husband. When I pointed out all the yard help, childcare help, and cleaning help his mother had and I had nothing nor did my mother, he would litterally wave it off. I tried to work it out with my husband but he and the whole clan are bullies.

Some of the advice is good. If you're dealing with a narcissistic extended family system of a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law that wield a lot of power over the family's perception of you, it's a mighty uphill battle. Hence why I tend to try to keep my interactions civil but extremely minimal. After having my son, my MIL was often harsh toward me and rarely helped with anything...she always wanted to be waited on and driven to every church event with little consideration that my husband and I work and at the time had our 3 children who were all under the age of 6. Nowadays I keep my distance and only talk to her when I have to.

But maybe if ur mother has a faith she can lean more into that and let God lead her not temporary wealth control her. The richer u are the harder it is to enter the kingdom of heaven because as your blessings increase so do your battles. Money comes with a lot of risk to ur character and soul! Understand not just how to make money but it’s power and influence especially on yourself the one who has the wealth. If your child is involved you have to all you can do to get ur child back. But the value of ur child comes with also great responsibility, u have to be patient and do the right thing even when the outcome is not as you had hoped. Leave your battles to God he has blessed you with wealth but u are not above him! So turn to him only the Lord has all the answers

Ur moms right there is a risk of losing half but u have to choose love or ur money. That’s a risk we all take for love our heart our time and any other investment. But now a child’s involved ur child if u can come to terms of the possibility of her taking half at least u share a child together. Maybe that helps soften the potential blow. If u can understand how u feel and explain this to ur mom even if she does not agree if she can at least understand what u are doing and why then maybe she will calm down. U don’t want to not have a family and be alone forever jus to protect ur money maybe, that’s a decision only u can make for ur own life

Although in many cases it is the husband's mother that is the problem, in the majority of cases it is the wife's mother who is the problem. Potential in-law problems can only be fixed in the very beginning, before marriage. Set the soon to be bride's mother straight on boundaries and on what you both will accept and not accept, including the future MIL insulting the soon to be husband or bride. Hammer the woman down on her first attempt. Promise her (and live it out) a second time will not be allowed. If she's stupid enough to try another time, cut all ties of all kinds with her and move away - do not tell her r anyone else where you're moving to and change your phone number. If she finds you and shows up at your place, call the cops and have her charged with trespassing.

I have a son and he’s not my boyfriend.😂 really with the excuses?

[@marymcloughlin713]

This is all good advice, but i do feel like all of the responsibility and accountability falls on the DIL. I feel like that’s just not fair.

[@Bunny11344]

Exactly but eff them try to distance yourself from them if not cut your interactions short, hide in ur room if you have to

[@colorguardmadeeasy4739]

Your husband will adore you more if you get along w/ his Mom! That’s his world & hes loyal to his parents! Be kind!

[@kellyhewittangleberger1557]

I tried that, and she treated me worse. She would constantly gossip, lie, gaslight, never take no for an answer, guilt trip, manipulate, speak badly about my parents, etc. My "kindness and love" nearly caused a divorce. You can't, nor should you allow another person to abuse you, ever! I don't care who it is. She will never change and never did. You choose who u allow in your life and if a person is toxic, they have no business in your life. Going no contact wasn't about punishing her but about my mental/physical health and marriage. Leave and cleave! His loyalty should be first and always to his wife not monmy.

Thank you so much for this video

[@augustacookeygam5579]

I am extremely lucky, in my case my mother was the problem and my mother in law is a gentle and kind woman.

[@wirantinurardiani9046]

Isnt it tiring go always have to explain everything to ML esp when she lives with us? My husband feels he is entitled to take care of his mom. She pronounces herself as the queen.

[@Rey_N_Fran]

If she is worried and care it’s NOT about the Wife…ITS ONLY about her son

[@JeffreySchieding]

While the husband's mother is often the problem, many, many new marriages are damaged by the Bride's mother. There can be incalculable damage done when the daughter, the new bride, does not establish boundaries and standards for the mother, and if violated, the mother must have to experience the consequences.

The problem is, woman in general are entitled. Both the wife and the mother think they are entitled. The wife doesn’t see how attached she is to her mother or father but yet be upset about how attached her husband is to his family. Love your mother in law because without her your husband won’t have existed in this world.

@@irenekavishe2113 Yes, there are so many woman who wants to change a man. Make them their slave. Yes, a mother will be there to defend her son. I hope your husband won’t hate your father (as a father in law).

[@Ihid-ve2wh]

In laws are in laws, they are not your friends. The advice at the end of the video about going for coffees with you MIL... Definitely not! She should find her own friends. My mother in law can ask over 10 questions in 1 minute, and if I try to avoid the answer, she keeps asking the same question, she even asks questions about things I know she knows the answer, it is very annoying cause I realise I end up oversharering, and a lot of the questions are about finance, and she shares this information with her whole family, auncles, aunties, etc... Everytime after being with her I get anxiety and my partner won't let me set boundaries and stand my ground, the questions happen in my house and her house, so it is hard to be direct cause it feels disrespectful each time, so I have distanced myself from her, but that means I spend less time with my partner because of that. I am at the end of my tether I am afraid, and next time she will get a direct answer, i hope I can be assertive so I dont have it with my partner, but enough is enough.

[@2991nikita]

What if husband only saying i will not talk to my parents and i will not say them anything Then when wife says i cannot listen more now n i will not be able to talk daily i need time to which he said now no time its either this side or that side thats it

[@shristigahatraj5170]

I had passed through this situation for this you need to be patient ,and make a strong bond with your husband .

[@AVVVV777]

This advice is so terrible! The husband needs to tell his mom that she needs to focus on her own marriage and her own life and leave their life to them, to run as they see fit. It's not the son's or daughter-in-law's duty to emotionally placate this fragile and pathetic mother-in-law . And if the Mother-in-law was so interested in the so-called Journey as this woman states in the video, then she would know that part of her son's journey is to move on get a girlfriend or wife and have children of their own which means that part of the journey, means that she has to back off completely period,end of story.

[@c.h.5998]

Its funny how daughters in law think mothers do not want to let sons go. Most mothers have no desire to play mommie to a grown man. Daughter in laws seem to be the jealous ones twisting, resenting and complaining..coming from her own desire to rid mom in law from their life. If you notice her mom may visit,speak out, have an opinion, just fine. Mother in law walks on eggshells. But usually she will do or say the WRONG thing and daughter in law pitches a fit.. Its as old as time. A woman born in 1909 told me this years ago...a son is a son till he takes a wife, but a daughter is a daughter all her life😅 I put the blame on daughter in law. And the mother in law soon accepts short of dying, she cant please daughter in law. Lots of unneccesary loss and heartache. Caused by daughter in laws!

[@heenagupta9577]

Why is it always the Mom. Maybe the DIL is jealous of the relationship and you shouldn't abandon your parents just because you get married.
