[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The essential problem is that boys’ relationships with their moms look different from the mom’s perspective vs. the wife’s perspective: what to the mom is a good, loving, and present son is often seen and characterized as an overly enmeshed momma’s boy by the wife. And vice versa. A lot of wives who are super close to their own moms aren’t comfortable with their husbands being similarly close to the MIL. Wives don’t really believe that what’s good for the goose is good for the gander, unless it’s to their advantage.[/quote] Because the sons are very close to their dads!! Why does it only count for boys to be close to their moms? My dh is very close to his dad, but his mom complains she doesn't get enough attention. They go on guys trips often and he always wants to spend Father's Day with his dad. When I spend mother's day with my mom, there's complaining.[/quote]
