My mom lives with us. My son had a headache, and she gave him sobolo from the man of God on TV. My husband saw it, and it turned into an argument. My husband doesn’t like that man, but my mom sees him as everything. Currently, the two of them don’t talk, but that’s not even the main issue—rather, the Tom and Jerry story that unfolds in this house.

My mom wants to watch the man on TV. My husband would change the channel. I become the mediator. I’ve asked my mom to relax, but she sees my husband’s action as the work of the devil. So she wakes up early in the morning and sprays the house with one of the perfumes from the church, and my husband gets angry.
The latest fight was because my mother sprinkled water (she put in front of the TV) on the kids while they were sleeping, and my husband found out. He says my mother should leave. I support him, but I can’t show that I support my husband. I called my dad to come for her, and he said, “Since she’s been away, I watch proper TV and not that church. Keep her.”
He’s joking, but he knows he can’t make her go home.
I Was Fine Until I Was Alone In My Room
So I told my elder sister to come for her. She’s not married, but she doesn’t want to because of the same issue. I don’t even know what to do to restore calm. These days, my mom sees my husband and goes inside her room. She doesn’t come out until my husband is out of the way. It’s working, but for how long? She’ll go. I can’t.

I cant leave my mum and support my husband
Your mom is fuasting her superstition on the entire household. While religion is not bad, fanatism is detrimental. Sobolo cannot cure any disease and these pastors are entrenched non-acceotance of standard medical care. I for one, don’t want any of my children to grow up with this mentality because a si called man of God wants to psychologically control and get money off them.
why hasn’t she left willingly upon seeing all the signs and her self claim evil spirits?
she isn’t the one to control your home
I think the best solution is to get a small TV for her and send her to the husband. So please you can suggest this to your husband if he or both of you can afford.
Mothers are the spiritual backbone of children. She is an intercessor, Love and appreciate her for it before it’s too late. Get her, her own television in her room, allow her space in her grandchildren’s life, especially, when it comes to prayer. Prayer moves mountain.
