The answer

A wife should safeguard the privacy of her home and not disclose its secrets to anyone. Her obedience to her husband in this regard is obligatory. There is no harm in limiting your wife's family visits to two days a week or preventing them from coming up to your home except on specific days if you fear a detriment. However, if they live in the same house, it is better to try and reform your wife so that she stops divulging secrets.
