Benjamin Zulu has warned newly-married couples of inviting relatives to their homes. According to the psychologist, young couples should understand that the first decade post-marriage is critical, and therefore, they should use that time to build their home and not let their relatives come in between whatsoever.

Zulu argued that young couples should focus on building their home financially without intrusion from their relatives of either the man and the woman.
He stated, “When you marry, you must establish your nuclear family with your wife. If you allow your relatives to keep coming to your house, they will come in turns, your house will be like an airport.” The psychologist argued that relatives may come in between and destabilise the foundation of a young couple and even to a further extent, introduce bad behaviours to their kids. He argued that it is very difficult to control the behaviours of a relative, and therefore, this could impact marriages in a greater way.
He stated, “Pay for a lodging for them to sleep, it is not a must they sleep at your place.” Zulu went ahead and warned couples of building homes steps away from their parents, arguing this could also he a bigger challenge for them. According to the life coach, someone’s wife shouldn’t be near her mother in-law. Zulu said that a son’s wife and his mother are not relatives and this could be the beginning of trouble. He stated, “Do not take your wife to the compound that your mother lives in. These are two women who are not relatives. When there is no boundary, they will fight over small things, distance is important.” What are your thoughts on this story? Share your insights down below.
