Welcome to my kiosk my kiosk people.I will like to inform you that Madame K can be reached via email now so, if you have anything to share with me, You can send it to my mail. It shall be attended to wisely.
Today’s story is quite unique. Marriage is a wonderful thing especially when one finds the right person but what persons if you do not find the right in-laws? What should you do?
Kafayat is a married woman with two girls and a very wonderful husband and guess what? She came to the kiosk with her husband. Very good turn yeah? You can say that again. They have been happily married for over seven years now and kafayat loves her home dearly and with this consciousness she transcends to her in-laws who wouldn’t let her be not because she doesn’t have a male child but because they think the love her husband has for her isn’t normal.
Can you beat that? Well, true. Her mother in-law doesn’t visit when Kafayat is home and when she does, it’s always a hard time for Kafayat in the house. Times when you wish for no visits but it happens, she comes and leaves the landmark of torture in the home and due to this, her husband has stopped his mother from coming to his house. You can imagine how his mum felt when he made that verdict and now, every other person in the family thinks kafayat has done something to their son. ”Madame k, how do you get people that just hate your face to like you?, I don’t know what I have done wrong, I really can’t explain. Kafayat said” This is really hard, they hate you because your husband showers too much love on you. That’s insane.
There’s nothing new under the sun, I mean, nothing is strange but I must confess that,this is very strange. ‘‘I think you should go and see your mother-in-law and ask what you have done, ask her to explain what you have really done to her, it’s important”. No Way, her husband refutes, if she does that she is submitting her authority to my mother and that I won’t take. This has to be done to make peace, I advised, I don’t think she’s submitting anything, she’s just being wise with her. Sometimes, you just have to play the fool. Kafayat persuaded her husband and told him that she’s up for this peace because the tension in the family is making her lose concentration. She can’t attend family functions and when they invite her husband, they ask him to come alone. We ended the talk there and the following week, I expected Kafayat to come back and give me the full gist of what happened there and this is what she said…
”madame K, I am so weak, so weak. I did what you said and you wouldn’t believe that my mother-in-law yelled at me with the rest of the family, asking if I have stylishly come to renew the secret charm I’m using on her son”…
I was shocked and I said, At this stage you turn a blind eye, they know you are worried that’s why they are giving it hot. Behave like they don’t exist and see what happens after this.

I am just so tired of parents and parents-in-law meddling into the marriage affairs of their young adults. Just let them live, they will always come for advice and check ups.
