It's not a great mystery. Wife-mother confusion is a common relationship dynamic, in relationships with domineering wives and/or immature husbands, a relationship dynamic in which the wife essentially becomes the mother to both her husband and her children. This is dysfunctional enough on its own, but if you add a nanny to the mix, the dysfunction goes into overdrive. In that scenario, the wife becomes solely the mother of her husband, as the nanny takes care of the kids. This strengthens the wife-mother confusion, particularly when contrasted with the nanny; the de facto mother of his children who, importantly, does not treat the husband as her son. The de facto relationship becomes a husband and wife, living with the husband's mother - is it any wonder then that husband eventually ends up sleeping with his wife?
