Who should we love between mother and wife?
I am a wife and also a daughter in law. When I married, both my in laws were aged. my father in law passed away in 2016 and mother in law, last month. Both my husband and myself lived with them and looked after them very well.
A husband/son should not think that he has to make a choice between his mother and wife. he should be able to show respect to his parents even more so during their last years because they deserve it and because they need it most.
He should also love his wife equally. There will be verbal exchanges and friction in any given marriage but life is like that. One should not think of friction as a personal failure and go running to the counselor for every minor issue.
Those who learn to live life harmoniously with others in any given situation are the ones who are truly rich and content. It is not the bank balance statement which makes you rich.
If the mother is displaying tantrums, make sure to pacify her and try to make her understand that you will not give in to her blackmail and instead she has to agree to you if she truly loves you.
One should also make the wife understand that parents should be respected and revered. She can at least try to reconcile with the aged parents instead of outright rejection.
