Still, he didn't do a thing to his mom. But if she let them remove her ovaries, then yes, it's her own fault.
Anyhow, my mom kept telling my brother-in-law that his wife kept getting in the way of his projects, including the ones that are important for their daughter. He finally realized that when he got done refurbishing their bathroom - it was supposed to be done over a year ago, but since his wife had him in a stranglehold, that set him back a considerable amount.
Now he's got a fence to build so that his daughter can play outside, but again, she's interfering with his work. Now that he realizes what she's doing, he's starting to finally grow some balls & stand up for his decisions.
