Before blaming the BAHU let us blame the legal system for creating such a BAHU. These laws tend to westernize india. In western countries parents dont care for children and children dont care for parents. We are heading towards that. I have seen the kind of lonely lives the westerners lead. I prefer our tradition and culture which is having more harmony. Modern BAHU does not like the husband's mother and sister to stay in the same household.
Now let me come to your issue of why not blame the son... Son wants his mom and sister to live happily in the house. But everyday his wife throws tantrums on his mother and sister. Unable to bear this anymore his mother and sister feel they get peace of mind outside that house and move out. This is what is happening in most of our houses. SHAME ON WOMENS ORGANIZATIONS FOR CREATING LAWS WHICH FAVOR A DAUGHTER IN LAW AND HARASS MORE WOMEN IN THE HOUSE. I WANT ALL THE MOTHERS AND SISTERS OF HUSBANDS TO BOYCOT THE WOMENS DAY.

Today's mother was a new wife not long ago. Today's sister is either gonna be new wife or already a new wife in another house.

>>Todays mother was a wife long ago As I told you situation was better in the last generation. There was harmony between wife and mother earlier. Things became worst in the current generation. >> Todays sister is gonna be wife Yes definately. She will try to imitate her sister in law and take revenge on her mother in law.
What is the solution? Mother in law should become powerful. To make her powerful laws should become favourable to her.At present every 3 months there is a daughter in law biased law coming into force.

Funny!
Every generation for the last 3000 years thinks that the previous generation was better. Politicians and mother in laws were better in previous generations for 3000 years!
Life constantly changes! My previous generation had 7 kids average in every family. Even though we have 10 children ourselves but 2 children seems to norm every where. That in fact affects various other parameters. Which could affect relationship in complex ways.
For e.g. when you have 10 kids the probability of at least one child being sympathetic to their parent at old age is high.
