This is honestly one of the most painful realities in many families today.
When a woman (or even a man) begins to plant dislike or division between children and their extended family, the effects can last for generations.
💔 First, to the writer, you’ve done the right thing by speaking up.
Your story isn’t just yours; it represents so many peaceful families torn apart by silent bitterness and competition.
Let’s be honest, marriage is not ownership. When a woman marries into a family, she becomes part of it, not an outsider. And when there’s a misunderstanding, communication, not manipulation, should be the bridge.
To your brothers:
Don’t give up completely, but stop forcing relationships that only drain your peace. Keep your doors open, but also protect your emotional space.
Your children will grow, and one day, they will see the truth for themselves.
To the wives:
No matter what happened, remember that you’re shaping how your children will treat you and their in-laws in the future. The bitterness you teach them today is a seed that might grow back into your own home someday. And Kamar knows the address of every human on earth. I hope you won't complain when your sons' wives treat you the same way you once treated your in-laws?
To the entire family:
Keep unity alive among yourselves (you and your siblings). When love remains visible in your circle, it becomes a mirror, one that might make the others realize what they’re missing.
Sometimes, the best revenge is peace and consistency.
Keep being the united, loving siblings that you are. Don't forsake your brothers because of their wives and kids.
One day, the walls others built will fall on their own.🌿
"I don’t know if I’m the only one facing this or if it’s common in many families, but I really need to talk about it.”
We are seven siblings, four boys and three girls, all very close, peaceful, and united. We grew up with so much love and understanding among us. Even now that we’re married and living in different states, we still make time to connect, and our children act like siblings, always chatting, visiting, and bonding naturally.
But the problem is with our brothers’ wives. Two of them are Yoruba, one is Edo, and the eldest married from our own village. At first, we thought that last one would be different, but she turned out to be the chairlady of the group, the ring leader.
They don’t let their children mingle with our children. They’ve made those kids believe we are their enemies. Even our mother, their grandmother, doesn’t get any love or acknowledgment from them. They prefer their mother’s mothers, and I strongly believe it’s because of the things their mothers have been feeding them for years.

Our brothers are tired. They’ve asked their wives several times, “What did my mother or sisters do to you?” No reasonable answer. Even among themselves, the wives don’t flow or get along.
It’s sad because, as siblings, we have so much love and understanding, yet our brothers’ wives are raising children who see us as outsiders. It hurts deeply.
Why do some wives do this? Why turn your children against their father’s family, people who have done nothing wrong to you?
I don’t even know how to advise my brothers anymore. Should we keep trying to reach out or just focus on ourselves and our own families?
