Dear brother/sister in Christ, My mother in ###

[S Joshi]

Dear brother/sister in Christ, My mother in law and father in law doesn't like my husband showing any love to me. They don't like both of us even going to the market together. My mom in law keeps backbiting to my husband and he immediately shows hatred towards me. I am so confused because at times he says I am useless and not going for a job. But if I apply for a job and they call me for an interview then he doesn't allow me to go. He says who will make the children study and look after him. I am unable to understand what he wants with me. He always listens to his mom whether it is just or unjust. Kindly pray for me and my family. I don't speak a word back to avoid quarreling, but both my husband and mom in law insult me. Now I don't know whether to go for a job or not. These ### years of married life is still lacking understanding. They find fault with every little thing I do. They speak badly about every single soul around. They use terrible profane words and their language is bad. My two sons are also learning it. Both mother and son lend money for interest. When I advise my husband on anything, he puts me down saying I don't have enough life experience to advise him.

God please relieve her of tension. Please build good mutual understanding in the couple. Make the in-laws kind and sharing. All are your creatures.
