I completely agree with Manish Rogi. In most cases, it is Mother who creates problems rather than Wife. They are unable to cope up with changing times and spend most of their time cribbing, complaining and crying. Since the mothers were ill-treated by their mother-in-laws, they want the same thing to happen to their daughter-in-laws ! It is pure "ragging". I do not understand their mental makeup when they love their "own" daughters but hate the newly arrived daughter-in-law, who leaves everything and comes to her husband's house for the rest of her life. The main reasons are Over-possessiveness and Jealousy. Mothers are jealous that their bahus are educated, that they go to work and express their love to husbands more freely than the previous generation. The "older" generation needs some education to solve this issue. They need to "see" the world and let go of their "ego".
