No matter what she should not lay hands on her mother in law. This is a slap on the face of her husband. Some women are so detestful of their mothers in law that they do not want them around the house but would rather bring mother, father and siblings to come and live with them while those from her husband side are not wanted. I once overheard two ladies here saying that they would rather marry a man whose mother is dead. They don’t know that by saying that they are placing a curse on themselves. They might not be alive to see their children marry.

As for me, maa jeun omo, I will enjoy my children and eat the fruits of my labor. What oloriburuku obirin (misfortune headed woman) will prevent a mother from visiting her son’s house? Would she have married him if his mother didn’t give birth to him or raise him to the age of marrying her? God punish the devil. It is important for men to marry a thorough bred, well raised women, rather than falling for beauty. Most women tolerate their mothers while detesting their mother in law, kilode? Why? Remember you will one day be in Mama’s position and nemesis will catch up with you. A well brought up woman will NEVER insult her mother in law, talk less of beating her. She probably beat up her own mother in the past. Asife iyawo – misfortune wife. Women – pray that your children will not make the wrong choices.

THE BEST FOR MOTHER INLAW IS TO STAY IN YOUR HOUSE AND LET YOUR CHILDREN VISIT YOU, BECAUSE OF MOST SONS WIVES PREFERRED THE MOTHER IN LAW TO DIE BEFORE THEIR WEDDING DAY.
ONCE YOUR CHILDREN GET MARRIED , THEY HAVE BECOME SOMEONE ELSE. IT IS BETTER TO PRAY TO HAVE ENOUGH AND BE FINANCIALLY INDEPENDENT TO FEED YOURSELF.
SO, THAT YOU DO NOT BECOME SLAVE FOR YOUR SONS WIFE BEFORE YOU FEED YOURSELF.
BECAUSE AS SOON AS YOU ARE ASKING THEM FOR HELP, THEN, THE WIFE WOULD SAY TO HER HUSBAND THAT YOU SHOULD COME AND WORK FOR THE MONEY.
YOU WANT THEM TO FEED YOU, THEN THEY ARE READY TO USE YOU AS THEIR HOUSEKEEPER AND NANNY. SEBI O FE JEUN, THE SO CALLED ,,OMO,,
AFTER YOU HAVE OVERWORKED YOURSELF FOR OVER 30YEARS , THEN YOU WANT TO SLAVE YOURSELF AGAIN AND DIED IN SLAVERY ,
O UNJE OMO, SLAVERY, BECAUSE OF ONJE ,,OMO,, YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE THEIR NANNY, LET THEM RAISE THEIR CHILDREN THEIR OWN WAY ,
YOUR GRANDCHILDREN IS NOT YOUR CHILDREN , SO DO NOT DICTATE TO THEM HOW TO RAISE THEIR CHILDREN, STOP POKING YOUR NOSE .
STOP WALKING ABOUT WITH DOOMSDAY MINDSET.

My children will buy me a Porsche, Jaguar and a private jet some day, that is part of onje omo. I sacrificed my life for them and they will surely take care of me, by God’s grace. Being married doesn’t make any one a possession like cars or property. We are Africans and our culture doesn’t permit anyone to disrespect their parents in law, even when they sometimes become domineering. Thank God I raised respectful, well mannered and thorough bred daughters so disrespecting in laws will never be an issue. No child will ever turn me into a domestic slave or nanny for visiting them, my children know better. Nothing wrong with helping them out from time to time, but everyone’s situation is different – fingers are not equal. There can never be a justification for that kind of behavior and let us universally condemn it, rather than maneuvering around the issue. I pray the mother in law recovers fully and the stupid wife is locked up for 25 years for attempted murder.
