Husband demands that his mother-in-law call before visiting after repeatedly finding her at the couple's new home unannounced, wife is upset by his "uncalled-for" request, sparking family drama: 'She said I made her mom feel unwelcome'

We just know that this husband loves the quote: two's company, three's a crowd…He's just giving major pick-me energy! Not that it's a bad thing, it's perfectly okay to value your own space, especially once you've put a lot of time and effort into making your home your happy place…and we understand how, if every day the first thing he sees when returning from work is his mother-in-law draped across his couch, could become frustrating… 

But marriage is about comprise, and he is no longer living alone! So if his wife likes having her mother around, he's going to have to learn to deal with it! We're not saying every day…We believe that boundaries are essential to every healthy relationship. However, do we agree that reprimanding his mother-in-law before every guest appearance may be the best decision?… No. It's more likely to leave a bit of a sting on their relationship, and as infuriating as it may be, this should be something addressed between the couple…with his wife as the ultimate mother-in-law messenger…
