Dear Readers,
Apologies for the long break. We are back to address the trauma in-laws bring to our lives and how we can overcome this constant epidemic. Yes I call it an epidemic as it is an infectious virus society knows exist but seem to be at an impasse to solve. Abuse by in-laws is so worrisome and have caused so much anxiety, depression yet somehow remains ingrained in the fabric of our societies across the globe.
I am from Africa, Nigeria to be precise but I know folks from other parts of the world that face the same war.
What else will one call it but war? A woman gets married and gets barraged by a declaration of hostilities often which she cannot correctly identify its source. She only tries to postulate and make assumptions. Do you know what causes such high level of resentment? Sometimes I think most in-laws have serious un-diagnosed mental conditions. I often call them principalities in lower places just pinching at you in little snippets at a time until you look like you have lost it telling tales that looks fairly impossible for common sense to understand.
Recently I bought bread as I traveled home, getting there I sent the bread across to my in-laws only to be summoned and asked why I gave only my father-in-law bread. I was flat out oblivious to what the crime was. On asking how I managed to do so, I was told that the bread was dropped in a section of the house which infers it was meant for my father-in-law more so since it was only one bread. Oh the next crime was that I bought one bread as opposed to buying two. Of course I was not asked if I had the resources to buy two. The conclusion was that I have usurped her authority and relegated her position as the madam of her own house, all because bread was delivered to the house. It is not good to repeat the words of abuse this episode generated.
A friend of mine recently got ambush by her in-laws, this brought back some very bad memories and I realized there is need for people especially women to share their stories, seek advice as well help out others overcome present troubles.
So send in your stories, ask questions and get immediate answers.
Welcome back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
😅😁 Let us share the pains and laughter
