the problem is guys don't know how to treat both mother and wife equally. They're stuck in between two people they love. They know if they favor wife, mom will get upset and vice versa. If only man could understand how to go about keeping both happy, then there would be no jealousy from either side. And women don't like any outsider intervening in their decisions, even if it's ur saas. You don't see father-in-laws coming in between a married couple, so MIL's just need to learn that it's okay to let their sons go, land et them be happy with their wives. Sons at the same time, should always remember to visit their mothers, call her, make her feel important, so there are no complaints from the mother. And wives should understand this and realize it's important for son and mother to bond as well.
