My boyfriend’s mother wants us to breakup

Priscilla writes, “My boyfriend and father of our child has an obssesive mother who is so jealous of me.  She says that I am taking him away from her. She is very clingy and uses money to get to him.  Since we are both just 18, he depends on her for money.  We have been dating for two years but have been best friends for 5 years. She told me that he has no responsibility to the baby because it’s not in the courts. She tells him we spend too much time together.  He just doesn’t know what to do because he feel like he is choosing me over his mother whereas that’s not the case. What should I do? What advice do you have?  I love him so much but I dislike his mother.”  (Related:  My mother hates my girlfriend)

This woman wants to harass you so that you will get so frustrated and discouraged that you will simply go away leaving her son to her (it clearly reminds me of the other monster mother-in-law Sarah Palin who tried her very best to get rid of son-in-law Levi Johnston who was the father of her grandson Tripp with her daughter Bristol who became a teenage mom; there are reports that Todd Palin used threats and bribes to his daughter to breakup with Levi when the two were dating).  The key to dealing with this problem is that you should not fight with her at all and even avoid dealing with her.  You have to instead talk to your boyfriend and tell him to be a man and stop being a sissy by letting her mistreat you and her grandson.  I understand that your boyfriend is not financially independent but trust me if he stands up to her, this woman is so much in love with him that she will still not throw him out.  He has to stand up for himself and his family and that includes you and your son together.  If the birth certificate does not have his name as the biological father, then contact an attorney and straighten out the paperwork.   A DNA test to establish fatherhood may be needed.

I also want you to make sure that this boyfriend of yours does not use his mother as an excuse to abandon you and his son.  I would not be surprised if he secretly wishes that you two were gone from his life so that he can move on and is using his mother to make that happen.  I am not saying that is the case but I want you to think of this possibility and make sure that he is on your side.
