Good Morning ma,

I need your advise. Hide my identity. My husband and I live in a two bedroom apartment. We are just starting our lives ,just married for almost 2 years. I had my baby 2 months ago and my mom came to help me.

Having my mother around is a huge blessing because me and my husband both work on the island. Its not easy working in Lagos with a small baby. So,having my mother around is a blessing especially because I had a CS.

We are managing everything well until my husband told me that his elder brother who is in Canada is coming to Nigeria and will be staying for like 3 months so my mother has to leave cos its his elder brother and he cannot share a room with my mother.

First,I thought he was joking cos that was just a mean thing to say knowing that my mother was only living with us just to help us. I did not think he was being considerate but he was like,do I expect him to tell his brother not to come?

Why cant he tell his brother to find alternative accommodation? That was when he made the comment that threw me off:he said.....

I think, he is just tired of your mum staying endlessly. How old is your baby? 3 months is enough for her to stay with you and return to her house, if her stay seems endless, he may be frustrated.

Your mum is important but your husband's sanity is importanter, his brother is not coming, he is just tired of his MIL in his house forever.

Thumb up

Do men have problem with their mother in law, didn't know this, thought it was only women

Your mum is more important, he can sacrifice by staying in the parlour.
