Question My MIL has moved into our house
Anonymous asked 3 days ago

My husband has always been a mummy’s boy. I knew this before we got married. We have been married for 1 year now and I am expecting. He was always in her house, they were always gisting on the phone and he tells her everything. I have never had a problem with her except the fact that she wants to know everything going on in our lives. After we got married she would always be checking my stomach and asking me if it has happened. Thank God sha I took in month after marriage. My FIL passed away suddenly 3 months ago and my MIL took it badly. Last month, hubby said mama should come stay with us for 1 week. Before I knew it 1 week has turned to 1 month. Last weekend all of a sudden I saw this truck with plenty load in it in our compound. I now asked hubby how far, he said they wanted to repair some things in his parents house and that they would store the load in our house since we have 5 bedrooms. Before I knew it I saw people carrying like 10 ghana must gos into the room that mama was using. I now asked him I thought you said mama was going back home. He now said she was coming to live with us permanently that he is not sure how she will cope since my FIL has died. I am now very upset at how he could just move his mom in without even talking to me about it. When I started complaining, he said he didn’t think he had to ask my permission to take care of his family, and he hoped that our children they won’t throw us out on the street like I want him to do to his mother.
Mamas how do I deal with this issue given that our marriage is so young.

Please take it easy for the sake of your condition. Pretend as if its nothing for now and do not show ur MIL that u don\’t support her coming to stay permanently in ur house. When hubby is relaxed, talk to him about it and the need to take you into confidence when issues like this crop-up. You don have to make an issue of out this, moreover, u have not complained about your MIL\’s attitude. Let ur hubby understand that u are part and parcel of his family, as such the need to involve u in decision making. I know he will reason with u and learn his lesson going forward.
