I believe 100% that you should pay attention to how a man treats his mother, among other people.

If the man had a bad mother, why would you want to be involved with him? He has no idea about how a mother treats a child or a child should treat their mother. He doesn't know what a happy family is and how you go about having one. Any person estranged from parents should be avoided even if it is no fault of their own. Your holidays will not be what you are used to. Your relationship with your parents will change since he doesn't have that bond with his parents that you have with yours.

I am curious of everyone's opinions. Do you believe that all men who do not respect their mothers or treat their mothers badly will treat their wives in the same way? Even, if - suppose - he has a good reason to be on bad terms with his mother?

FYI, I never liked the way my ex-boyfriend treated his mom (oftentimes he'd talk back to her in a very disrespectful way in my presence, and I found it very odd). This was one of the many, many reasons why I left him.

So just curious: do you think all men who disrespect their mothers are bound to do the same to their wives?
There are people who respect their mothers but treat their spouses like garbage. Sometimes they suffer from "your heiness" syndrome.

Lol at the tremendous yeses. Shows how some people are naive and desperate.

I know tons of men who treat their mothers like gold and their girls like objects.

Also, some men don't have the best mothers. That doesn't mean they'll automatically be abusive and vile towards their girl.
