Focusing only on the negative aspects of a newly married woman's experience in her new household, especially portraying her as humiliated, is not only disturbing but also a disservice to the complexity of these relationships.
It creates a harmful and often inaccurate stereotype.
Instead, media (whether it's TV shows, movies, literature, or even social media discussions) should strive to depict the nuances of these situations.
Mutual Adjustment: Marriage is a significant change for everyone involved, not just the bride. The new wife has to adjust to a new family, new customs, and a new home. Simultaneously, the existing family members have to adjust to having a new person in their space and dynamics.
Stories should explore this mutual process of adjustment, showing the challenges and the efforts made by all parties.
