Meddling Mother-in-laws

Everywoman

Available for over a year

A survey of girls in Nepal shows that their biggest concern about the future is their mother-in-law. Why is this relationship often so difficult? Also on the programme: Is the amount of pornography on the internet a threat to women and children that could be curtailed by more stringent regulation? Plus this week's diary focuses on a Northern Irish woman trying to bring peace to the region without taking sides.
