As elucidated by the user, the soon going to be grandmother wants to be called ‘Mommy-(her first name)’. Her bucket list is not restricted to this only but she wants to seal a bigger deal by exercising her prerogative of being an elder. ‘Mommy-(first name of the mother of the kids)’ is what she thinks is perfect for her grandkids to call their mother. The daughter-in-law had been sulking over this grave issue and she finally broke it out through her post.

What afflicts her more is her husband’s reaction over this issue. According to the woman user, her husband sounded fine with his mother’s desire. Taking a firm stand on his mother’s side, he commented it to be normal as the kids of his brother call her ‘Mommy’ too. This had unleashed turmoil in their marital life. The duo got demented with each other and they were on the brink of getting divorced. The only way left with the woman was to resort to some sagacious advice from the outside world. And finally, she decided to break the matter open into the social media sphere through her post. She chose this trail as she didn’t want to snap ties with her husband. For her, the issue was indeed grave but too small for a relationship to be throttled up.

Eventually, the social media world rose up to salvage her marriage. Advice, remarks and sarcastic reviews were poured in from all corners of the world. The stage was soon rocked by a large number of posts in this regard that mingled up to provide an overall mixed reaction. To some, the matter was needed to be taken strongly before her in-laws. Some thought that the husband should be more coherent in his approach. Lamenting her post, some big heads asked her to let it go. There were posts too that advised her to take it lightly. They felt that people had the right to choose their names and so she could do that too by choosing to be called just ‘Mommy’. To her delight, her anxiety finally melted down and she expressed her gratitude for the wise advice.

Relationships in the ever-changing world are becoming too fragile to be handled. They are woven together by threads of trust and love. But a small quiver of emotions is enough to unravel and break them off. The only way to preserve them is to act pragmatically and let people have their space.
