"MANY OF OUR MOTHERS WERE TREATED POORLY IN MARRIAGE, SO NOW WE THINK OUR WIVES SHOULD ACCEPT THE SAME AS 'GOOD WIVES'," SHAMSEDDIN GIWA WROTE.

"Many of those who make reference to what sort of wives their mothers were didn’t really get the truth from those mothers.

Many of them came from a generation where a wife did not have a right to speak and contribute; where it was a taboo for a man to play a role in domestic chores, parenting and keeping the home; and where it was fashionable to be a tyrant barking out orders; where punishment was handed out in physical beatings and financial starvation; where infidelity was glorified and being a good wife was accepting all the above and more without complaining.

This is what the children saw and as the mothers did it, the expectations of said male kids were conditioned. Today, the kids have become the husbands demanding directly or indirectly similar. The female kids saw this as well and formed rebellious minds, deciding early that they would not be such wives, that they would be more.

Today though, many of those fathers are now aged and lonely, silently regretting the sort of husbands and fathers they were, watching the loyalty of the children to their mothers flourish. All of that power is gone.

Today, as husbands, we should pay attention and treat our family right because the table turns at a point."
