MOTHERS IN LAW<br />

VS DAUGHTERS IN LAW S<br />

This has always been a famous topic<br />

among young women (wedded or not), a<br />

bone of contention, a heart troubler and<br />

an issue that can displace a young<br />

woman from the heart of her husband<br />

if not carefully handled and that which<br />

can send a mother-in-law to her early<br />

grave. It’s so unfortunate that both<br />

parties have mixed feelings when they<br />

are about to see each other for the very<br />

first time (cold feet, heart pumping fast,<br />

over conscious and unnecessarily<br />

sensitive to words). The question is why<br />

all these feelings? It is simple: the angel<br />

brought to your home introduced as a<br />

wife to be smiling and laughing with you<br />

could be a demon after marriage (for the<br />

mothers-in-law). Some mothers-in-law<br />

have an unintended and uncontrollable<br />

feeling of rejection and resentment<br />

towards their daughters-in-law. This ould<br />

be caused by one of the following three<br />

reasons:<br />

1. The eldest son is a source of<br />

compassion and love which mothers<br />

benefit from, especially at old age;<br />

therefore, they would not have good<br />

feelings towards those whom they think<br />

would deprive them from such a source.<br />

2. The mother, who has spent her<br />

entire life raising and caring for her<br />

children, finds it difficult to accept that<br />

the daughter-in-law, who has never<br />

shouldered such responsibilities, is able<br />

to properly care for her son.<br />

3. The mother-in-law could have<br />

different values, principles or even<br />

ideologies from the daughter-in-law. She<br />

believes that she can never be wrong<br />

(for the elites).<br />

DAUGHTERS IN V<br />

Therefore it is very important to strike a<br />

balance or bring both of them on the<br />

same platform. Simply put there are<br />

some family strives that can be avoided<br />

if the game is well played. Basically,<br />

mothers-in-law are to be seen as our<br />

mothers. Honestly, we all do have<br />

misunderstanding with our mothers but<br />

that is not enough reason to disown our<br />

mothers or be rude towards them.<br />

Therefore it is important for us all to<br />

know how to win over our mothers-inlaw<br />

hearts.<br />

Every woman should always remember<br />

that one day you will become a motherin-law<br />

and a golden rule that should<br />

never be forgotten is ‘Never to start off<br />

with a bad relationship’, for instance<br />

reading meanings to gestures.
