My ma apparently always includes some negative comments about my wife. I have tried to console her a lot of times but now my wife wants to live separately and if I don’t find a new house, she threatens to either go back to her parents’ place with our four-year-old son. She is even threatening suicide. My problem is that I have to take care of my mother as I don’t have a father. How do I explain to my wife?
