“Mum, he wants me to do it for him… He says all good wives know how… Am I not good? Teach me… If everyone else can, surely I can too…” I’m still amazed that my niece found a husband, all thanks to her mother. When Alina was a child, my sister refused to let her go to nursery school; as a teenager, she was never allowed out, always kept at home—she became a hermit. While studying at university in our town, her mother insisted she return home by 6pm every day. At 20 years old, her mother would call at half seven and shout if she wasn’t home yet. It was absurd, nothing less. Alina met her future husband in her second year at uni, studying together in the library—he was two years older, shared his notes, helped her, and before he knew it, he had fallen for her, and they started dating. That was when my niece began openly defying her mother’s rules. Eventually, my niece married, and her mother allowed her to start a new life. Now, let me share a story that recently happened. I was at my sister’s house when Alina rang, her voice mixed with laughter and tears so that we could barely understand her: “Mum, he wants me to do it for him… He says all good wives know how… Am I not good? Teach me… If everyone else can, surely I can too…” At that moment, my sister’s face changed instantly; she told her daughter to calm down and asked her to explain what it was that all good wives can do. “Make soup, Mum,” she said. And we burst out laughing. “Don’t laugh at me! You never taught me how to cook, I’ve tried recipes online but nothing tastes right!” So my sister and I quickly walked her through every step of how to make homemade soup—occasionally laughing at ourselves along the way. That evening, my niece called to thank us; her husband had praised her, the soup was delicious, and Alina now insists she’s finally a “proper woman”!

Mum, he wants me to do it for him He says all proper ladies can do it And am I not proper? Please teach
