Vietnamese husband faces mother‑in‑law dispute and wife's extreme dieting

A man who has been married for almost four years and cares for a toddler was forced to leave his wife's family home after a misunderstanding involving a female coworker. His mother‑in‑law responded with a barrage of accusatory messages, blocked his attempts to meet his wife, and threatened to keep the child at her parents' house, creating a custody and family‑relationship crisis.

In a separate but thematically similar case, another husband married for only four months struggles with his wife's aggressive weight‑loss regime. She limits her meals to tiny portions, avoids any food that might trigger cravings, and refuses to eat together, leaving him to find food elsewhere and feel isolated within his own home.
