Dear Anyone,

I love my husband with all my heart but his mother is driving me insane! Every time he talks to her he comes away depressed and talking about how he's a failure and how we (me and the kids) would be better off without him. On any normal day he's your run-of-the-mill hard working father and husband who busts his backside to provide for his family. All it takes is one word from his mother and he's down for the count, so to speak.

WHAT'S YOUR ADVICE?

	A:	Back off woman! You don't come between a man and his mudder.
	B:	Take "dear old mother" out back for a few rounds of "Leave the man alone!"
	C:	Tell him exactly how you feel. There's nothing more important in a marriage than honesty. You'll figure out a solution together.
	D:	Try family counseling. There may be some underlying problem his mother has that she hasn't dealt with herself.
