Here is the bottom line, as I see it. Mothers absolutely must understand that when a son marries, a new family has begun. That marriage is his NUMBER ONE priority. His loyalty and primary concern needs to be with his wife and the family they create. This never means that the mother ceases to exist and must be cut out or shown no concern. It means that she has done her job in raising a man, and she needs to step away from any attempts to keep the mother-son relationship a mother-child relationship. He is now a man and a husband. Failure to recognize this is the seedbed of most of the problems with daughters-in-law. 45 years ago, my dad drove drunk and got into an accident. We went to the ital with my badly injured mom. My sister and I just had some bruises, so all we needed was x-rays.
