What is the appropriate solution for dealing with a mother who suffers from obsessive-compulsive disorder and directs insults at her children and husband, and how can a son show filial piety to her while avoiding the impact of her compulsions on himself and on the family atmosphere?
A mother's errors, such as cursing and verbally abusing her husband and children, are grave and forbidden. Their ugliness is compounded by the fact that they are directed at the husband, whom she has been commanded to obey. Advise your mother gently, avoid what upsets her, and obey her commands unless she calls for obsessional doubts (waswas) or extremism.
