I always tried to be a good wife, I obeyed my husband, because I always thought that a woman should be obedient and never go against her husband’s will. But now I have to oppose him for my mother’s sake. I have been married for almost 20 years.
I tried to be a good wife, a good mother, a good daughter-in-law, but since the day of my marriage, I never did anything for my parents, because my husband and his family didn’t like me trying to be useful to my parents. My mother always taught me that a woman should protect the peace of her family at all costs.
Recently, my mother developed serious health problems, she underwent a major operation and needs care. My husband doesn’t like me staying at my mom’s for a few hours and forbids me to go.
Every time I came home from my mother’s place, she would make a big fuss, insult me for neglecting my family for some sick woman. His words pierced my heart, but I asked him to be a little patient until my mother recovered. But he asked me a question. choose your family or your mom? And I chose my mother.
I can’t leave my mother helpless, I can’t leave my sick mother without care, who spent sleepless nights to raise me, who worked day and night together with my father so that I get a good education, never left me alone in my difficult time. I chose to care for my mother and left her.
Could I be so wrong? When I was taking care of her mother, she said that I have to, but when I have to take care of my mother, she gives me a choice.
Have I not known him for so many years?
