Mbagwu Jenifa, a Nigerian woman, recounted her encounters living with her mother-in-law. She recounted her story in response to a post by a Nigerian man advising women to mentally prepare themselves if they intend to reside with their mother-in-law.
Jenifa shared that her experiences with her mother-in-law led her to make a vow to treat her future daughters-in-law with affection and dignity.
In contrast, another Nigerian woman disclosed that she ended her marriage due to her mother-in-law’s oppressive behavior, which nearly reduced her to a state of servitude.
“A living single mother is better than a dead married woman,” she added.
