WHY I DON’T POKE MY NOSE IN MY SON’S MARRIAGE – OMONI OBOLI
Omoni Oboli, an actress and filmmaker, spoke with Ifedayo Agoro on the Dear Ife podcast about boundaries in her son’s marriage.
She disclosed that, even when she is worried, she refrains from interfering and respects her daughter-in-law’s autonomy.
Oboli underlined the significance of acknowledging that her son’s new family unit is distinct from her own.
According to her, she respects her daughter-in-law’s autonomy and avoids interference in their marital decisions.
“There’s been a few times when my son has come to meet me to say, ‘Mum, Marelle does not like that’ and I have to catch myself back and say ‘Oh, I didn’t mean it that way.’ And it’s okay. So, the fact that your child cannot come to you to say ‘my wife doesn’t like this’, that’s a problem in itself.
“I think, first things first, people need to understand and realise that this is now another family. Yes, they are still a part of your family but they now have their own family,” she argued.
