Some relationships have always been difficult to hold in families. One of them is between a mother-in-law and a daughter-in-law. History is full of instances where many daughters-in-law and mothers-in-law saw their relationship moving to the brink of collapse after a few days of marriage. But, thanks to the advancement in technology, we are all able to be have a front-row seat in the whole MIL-DIL drama. Social media has become one of the biggest sources of entertainment.
Not just that, but many of them manage to stand out. They leave their audience stunned with their intriguing plot and backgrounds. Therefore, the confrontations between mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law are all out in the scene to take it to another level. Plucking out the stirring ones, we have put together the following narratives from across the globe.
A Push Out Of Family Picture
Sometimes mothers-in-law go out of their way to cut their daughters-in-law short of their place in the family. A woman experienced that raining down on her when she went out with her family for lunch. Her divorced and single mother-in-law had also joined them.
They had a great time together. They made the best of their family time and cherished their meal over talks. Finally, they bid a warm goodbye to her mother-in-law and returned home.
After getting home, the woman saw the social media post of her mother-in-law. Her mother-in-law had posted her picture with the woman’s husband and daughter at the restaurant.
In the caption, the woman found her mother-in-law mentioning only her husband and her daughter along with her. It looked like the woman was not part of the family lunch.
Eventually, she realized that her mother-in-law had clicked the picture when she had gone to the washroom. The old mother-in-law did not want to include her daughter-in-law in the family picture.
Feeling sidelined, the woman commented on the post that they had a great lunch, and four of them were together there. Her comment went a long way in dementing her mother-in-law.
The Earring Dogma
Girls love their earrings. Therefore, is it right for a boy to run after them? Well, according to a woman’s mother-in-law, it is not. The woman is the mother to a boy. He had been yearning for an earring since the age of 6.
With days passing away, his desire for donning an earring evolved stronger. Finally, the woman and her husband had to bow down before his wish. To ensure a safe piercing, the woman took him to a piercer. He wanted only one pierced ear.
His happiness and satiation delighted his parents. But his grandmother was not up for that. The boy went to her grandmother’s house alone. His earring managed to catch her attention. That made her go mad with rage. She started giving the boy an earful.
According to her, only girls and criminals had an affinity for earrings. Thus, the earring was giving him a girlish look.
Not just that, she also told him to remove him if he did not want his mates to have a hearty laugh at the school. She also thought that he had done that without informing his parents.
She was of the view that no parent could let their boy do that. Therefore, she sensed a streak of shock when she got to know that his mother had taken him to the piercer.
Seeing the matter out of bounds, she decided to take it into her hands. She began to look for her belt to spank him. The scared boy made her run throughout the house. Finally, he managed to escape on his bike and reached his home.
He narrated the incident to his parents and refused to visit his grandmother again. The woman called up her mother-in-law to question her indecent actions and behavior.
To that, she replied that they were turning him into a criminal and a girly boy with that earring. That left the woman baffled.
Too Much Open
If you don’t know how far a mother-in-law can go with her spying thrill, then you may pay an ear to this story. A woman and her husband were in an open relationship. They had many partners and did not mind it.
But her mother-in-law did not company them. Her mother-in-law moved into a house located at a distance of 30 minutes from their house. She broke it to them only after she set herself in the house. After that, she started keeping an eye on them.
Following that note, she noticed them having too many visitors. Their frequent visits made her skeptical. She ended up believing that the woman was having many extramarital affairs and was cheating on her son.
To expose the woman, the mother-in-law started chatting with her using the profile of her friend’s son. Then, she proposed to the woman to hook up. The woman found the picture of the boy cute and discussed it with her husband.
They agreed and fixed a meeting with the boy. But they sensed a wave of shock when her mother-in-law turned up in place of the boy. She started confronting them with the printout of their messages.
Not just that, she also started lashing out at the woman for cheating on her son. Seeing the situation escalating, the staff at the restaurant asked her to leave. But she did not stop and started yelling after coming out of the restaurant.
Their argument kept on turning worse. Finally, the couple drove off. However, the mother-in-law did not give up. She called the woman to apprise her of her plan to hex her to save her son.
Birth Certificate, Dear!
What do you think about who has the authority to store your birth certificate? According to a mother-in-law, you are off the line if you think that it belongs to you. A woman had gone to her mother-in-law’s place with her husband to celebrate their sister-in-law’s birthday.
Eventually, a discussion on birth dates broke out. The woman asked her mother-in-law about her husband’s birth time out of curiosity. To answer that, she went in to check his birth certificate. She returned with a locked box.
Then, she started pulling out family members’ birth certificates one by one. But she did not find the woman’s and her husband’s birth certificate there. She went ahead to ask them where they were.
To that, the woman’s husband replied that they were with the woman. Mother-in-law felt it was not right for the woman and her husband to keep those certificates with them. They tried to reason that they could easily access them when they needed them if they had them.
But the mother-in-law was not ready to give in. According to her, they should bring them there to keep them with other family members’ documents. Sensing the situation getting out of hand, the sister-in-law changed the topic.
After a few days, the mother-in-law asked her husband about their trip. He told her that they were not going on any trip. He had given the trip argument as an example to highlight their need to keep their birth certificates with them.
Then, she texted the woman to bring their certificates there on their next trip. Seeing her mother-in-law’s blatant remark, she told her she was right and was going to keep their certificates with her mother. As expected, that blew her mother-in-law off.
Covering A Failing Son
The world celebrates a mother for her unbounded love for her children. But that love could also blind her.
A woman found her husband cheating on her when she discovered a disease that her husband transmitted to her.
Shattered by her husband’s infidelity, she confronted her husband. Instead of accepting his heart-wrenching deed, he started shifting the blame on her. Reeling under the agony, she asked him to get out. He left without caring about their children.
Therefore, the woman was all alone with the bouts of heartache hitting her. She had to pull herself up for her three boys (an 8-year-old boy and 4-year-old twins). However, she had nothing with her. She had to go to a food bank to procure food.
She also had no idea if she had enough gas. She could see only a few persons standing by her: her sister and mother-in-law. Her mother-in-law kept in touch with her since the breakup. The woman thought she was supporting her.
However, she was wrong. Her mother-in-law was trying to pacify her. She had also spread the rumors of the woman taking back her husband. She tried all her wiles. At last, she lost her patience. She told the woman that she was being selfish.
Not just that, she also went ahead to ask her to understand her husband’s position. According to her, men had different needs. Therefore, she should not create a scene. At least, he did not return home drunk.
That stunned the woman. How could one compare cheating with drinking? Not just that, but her husband also did not accept his mistake or apologized. He abandoned them without having thought about their family. Her mother-in-law did not stop there.
She also asked the woman to be a decent wife. That ended up breaching her patience. She cursed her mother-in-law. Facing the worst on the matrimonial front, she had only one hope. She wanted to raise her boys better than her husband.
Pre-wedding Blues
Pre-wedding time provides the soon-to-be bride and groom a chance to understand each other’s family in the best way. Not just that, it also sets the stage for their parents to fall in line. However, sometimes things take an obnoxious turn.
A woman was at her friend’s wedding rehearsal. The best man was facing an issue with his car. Therefore, the would-be groom went to pick him up. In the meantime, his parents arrived. The would-be bride went ahead to greet them.
She thanked her would-be mother-in-law for coming. However, her mother-in-law did not reciprocate her greetings. Instead, she went ahead to ask her to address her with “Mrs. (last name)”. The would-be bride still held on to her nerves.
She replied that she would also not prefer her to be her mother-in-law. Adding to that, she said that it looked like they had not been getting what they wanted. The mother-in-law did not budge after having it from her.
The old woman went around cribbing about the way her would-be daughter-in-law behaved with her. Finally, her son arrived, and she complained to him.
To that, he replied that his would-be wife would not start the fight. But he had given her his blessings to finish them.
Cat Ruins It Down
It is not hard to find a mother-in-law dreaming of obsession of babies. After all, nobody can resist one’s heart from beating on seeing a cutie nugget. But what drives them crazy is their desire to pamper their grandchildren.
A woman had her mother-in-law head over heels in love with babies. She loved to be with babies. Baby girls drew her attention and love a little more than baby boys.
Therefore, one can also expect her longing to shower her love on her grandchild. However, the woman and her husband did not have babies. Instead, they had cats. One of them loved to play with a blanket.
It would jump into the woman’s lap and roll itself in a blanket. One day, her mother-in-law arrived at their place. She got excited to see her holding a roll of blanket close to her. She thought that she had been holding a baby.
Thus, she could not hold herself back and rushed to her. She removed the blanket a little bit and went ahead to kiss it but only to step back in shock. There was no baby under the blanket.
To her dismay, she was about to kiss the cat’s butt! The sight of the butt made her go crazy. She started complaining about why not they stopped her. Why did not they tell her that it was not a baby?
To that, her husband replied that she knew that they did not have babies. Then why did she think that it was a baby? The disgruntled woman thought that they were babysitting the baby of woman’s friend.
But how could she go ahead to kiss a stranger’s baby without seeking permission? She left the scene and went into the washroom. Hope the mother-in-law has better luck next time.
Twin Recognition Challenge
Nobody knows babies better than their mothers. She is the one with whom they spend the most time. However, some people do not think the same.
A woman welcomed twins. They were not identical but had similarities. Therefore, only she could tell them apart over time. Finally, her mother-in-law arrived to poke her nose into the issue. She had been at their place for a week.
The woman was stirring her patience. But the mother-in-law was not ready to let it go easy. Therefore, one day when the woman was putting the toddlers in their swings, the mother-in-law started scanning them.
Celebrating her recognition skill, she branded twin B as twin A. The woman tried to correct her. But she started to list out the traits to prove her point. The woman told her that she was their mother and knew her children. To her dismay, the mother-in-law was all lost in her hubris.
Finally, the toddler cleared the air, and the mother-in-law could only stare.
Playing The Money Game
Some mothers-in-law do not like to give up their authority. They cannot see their children living happily with their spouses on their terms. Therefore, they resort to money games.
A woman and her husband decided not to have children. But her mother-in-law could not digest the fact. She would keep pestering them to have babies and start a family.
Finally, the woman’s husband tried to shut the matter forever by telling his mother about his vasectomy. She saw the matter slipping out of her hand. One day, the woman and her husband were chatting with her mother-in-law and father-in-law.
Securing the moment, the mother-in-law went ahead to tell them about their burial plot. She went ahead to discuss her funeral plans, medical bill clearance, and property-related documents.
Finally, she came to their estate will. She opened up that they had divided their estate to support their family lineage. Therefore, the woman’s husband had no share in the estate.
The mother-in-law had expected it to leave them crazy. However, in contrast to her expectation, they agreed with her point! Their reaction was completely different than her other two children. Thus, her money vile did not work.
Seeing her plan faltering, she emailed her husband to apologize. She was ready to discuss the estate issue with him. But she did not want the woman to be a part of that. But that too also did not work.
Her son expressed their delight on having his parents cherish their money and property after retirement. Adding to that, he also told that he would never criticize them for that. Now, that was a big blow to the money-drunk mother-in-law.
Meanwhile, her other two children were locking horns with each other for getting a larger share of the property.
Exposing A Hitler
Well, you are wrong if you think that only women are at the receiving end of their mother-in-law’s viles. A man also claimed to be a victim and belonged to that cohort. But finally, he had his moment.
The man had been dealing with a callous and manipulative mother-in-law. She would torture him with her words when they were alone. Not just that, she would also go out of bounds to prove him a liar when he raised the matter with others.
He had been reeling under it for years. But he did not want to break it off completely because he liked to be with his affable brothers-in-law. Therefore, he kept suffering in silence. One day, his brothers-in-law brought the Secret Hitler game.
In this game, players divide themselves into two groups: Fascists and Liberals. Only, fascists know who Hitler is. Liberals have to recognize the fascists and eliminate them. Meanwhile, the fascists keep matters jittery and try to bring Hitler to power.
They were taking the game ahead. The mother-in-law was not sparing a chance to turn it against the man. Finally, she made a mistake. The man pounced over it and proved that she was a fascist.
Cherishing the bonus point, he managed to eliminate one member of the fascist gang. Not just that, but he also got up and declared that the mother-in-law was Hitler. Taking it ahead, he eliminated her.
To his delight, she was Hitler and the Liberals won. Therefore, the man cherished a triumph over his mother-in-law after years of his struggle. The mother-in-law left the room in a fit of rage and locked herself in her room.
Finally, the man coronated her with the crown of a liar in front of the family.
Forking A Card Fraud
Mothers-in-law have taken their tricks to another level. In many cases, they had also taken to financial routes to let all hell loose over their daughters-in-law.
A woman had her sister-in-law getting married in September. The wedding cost $15000-$20000. But the couple managed to pull that off with help from the family. The woman and her husband got married three years ago.
At that time, her mother-in-law had denied them any financial help from her side. Their doubts turned true when the brother-in-law told the woman’s husband that her mother-in-law had financed the bill to a great extent.
Her husband was shocked but accepted the truth. But that was not all. The worst was yet to turn up for them. One day, he received a mail from the collection company. They sent him a pending bill of $8000 on a credit card.
The credit card was in his name. But he had not seen that card before. Puzzled, he contacted the company. They offered him a discount of $3000 on the bill. He thought that they were tricking him.
Thus, he went ahead to probe into the matter. He contacted the credit card company. Then he got to know that the card was in his name. But the address was his parents’ house. He had left that about six years ago.
He called up his mother to inquire about the matter. She denied having any knowledge about it. Finally, he informed her about his plan to report it to the police. To that, she insisted him to pay $5000 and bury the matter.
Not just that, she also tried to shift the blame onto the woman. She put together the possibility of her shopping secretly and adding to his credit card bill. But he did not budge on calling the police.
Finally, the mother-in-law confessed to having issued the card in his name to pay for the wedding. She requested him pay the bill and not report it to the police. She feared that it would make the brother-in-law go mad.
He switched it off and revealed the matter to the woman. Adding to that, he also called the police. The rest is history.
Annoying Childhood Innocence
Well, many mothers-in-law are very particular about their family beliefs. They try to protect them at their best. Not just that, they also do not hold back to impose them on young minds in the family.
A woman had a five-year-old daughter. She had a fancy for love. Therefore, she had an imaginary boyfriend. She called him Moa. They had a great match. He also loved to have a fried pound cake with cream like her.
Not just that, she would cherish the best of her childhood imaginary love. She would pretend to take to him over the phone. What else when she asked her mother to make popcorn for them?
But not everybody had the patience to put up with her imaginary love. The woman and her daughter were at her in-law’s place. Then, she started talking about her imaginary boyfriend. Celebrating her innocence, the woman asked how he looked.
To that, the little nugget replied that he was black and had short green hair. With that, the mother-in-law was all out of her comfort zone. She raised the question about his being black. But the cute girl went on and stressed his green hair.
Her mother-in-law could not tolerate a black imaginary boyfriend of her granddaughter! The woman could not stop laughing since then. She thought about what would happen to her mother-in-law if he were also an atheist.
No Gifts Please!
Not all gifts come without any condition. Most people prefer to give gifts to force receivers to make an accommodation for their demands and desires.
A couple also found themselves in a similar. The two women were deeply in love with each other. They got engaged and decided to tie the knot. Taking on the wedding plan, they wanted to keep it small and beautiful.
Therefore, they put up a guest list of only eleven people. Not just that, they also decided to wear the clothes they had with them. Their friend was helping them with their wedding rings. They also planned to have a short ceremony.
They wanted to end the occasion by signing the certificate and gorging on their meal at their favorite restaurant after that. Therefore, they were all set with their wedding plan. But then, they received transfers of $15000 each from their parents.
They had not asked them for that. Their parents told them that it was their wedding gift. They were delighted and thanked them. But then, the real thing started. The soon-to-bride was to wear a dress and her partner a suit.
But her mother-in-law wanted her daughter to wear a dress. She tried to convince her of that for two weeks. On the other hand, the would-be bride’s parents were forcing them to go to a big wedding with an expanded guest list.
Therefore, they decided to meet their parents over lunch. They came to know about the miscommunication thing. The would-be bride’s parents had transferred the money to finance the expanded guest list.
Her partner’s parents had also done that to have them spend that on their wedding dress. Thus, the wedding gift amounts had conditions attached to them. Taking note of that, they left to discuss the matter with each other.
The couple decided that they should not accept the amount. Therefore, they transferred that back to their parents’ account. They came back to the table and informed their parents about their decision. Their parents suffered a blow.
They asked their daughters not to act like children. To that, the couple asked them not to interfere. That left their mothers in tears. Adding to that, they informed them that their decision was final.
Not just that, they also thanked them for the lunch and footed their bill before leaving.
Encroaching Over Others’ Children
The desire for grandchildren breaches the limit in many cases. This woman saw her mother-in-law take on that note.
The woman and her husband were struggling to start a family. They were facing fertility issues. But then, they suffered another blow. The woman lost her sister and brother-in-law in an accident. Their car collided with a truck, and they breathed their last.
They left behind their three kids (11, 7, and 1 year old). The woman and their husband got custody. That imbued her mother-in-law with joy. She was delighted that they were finally going to have kids.
Her happiness started making her celebrate her sister’s death. She was relieved that her sister died. Otherwise, they would not have the kids. Her happiness started testing the woman’s patience. After all, she was still recovering from the irreparable loss.
It went out of hand when her mother-in-law asked her to make kids call her their mother. According to her, she was their mother now and should have the right over them.
The woman could not believe that she had no respect for children’s feelings. They were braving the toughest phase of their life. They had lost their parents and still mourning.
Her remarks also made her husband lash out at her. According to the woman, the kids did not belong to her in any way. And, she did not have any right over them as her grandchildren because she did not have decent intentions.
That would surely knock her down.
Anti-allergy Belief Kills!
A woman had a three-year-old daughter. She was the only child in their family. Therefore, her mother-in-law pampered her a lot. She loved to spend time with her. But the girl had health issues. She was allergic to many foods.
Therefore, she never took the risk of leaving her daughter alone. Her mother-in-law did not believe in food allergies. She would not accept that not everything was right with her granddaughter.
Her mother-in-law had once offered to babysit the girl. But they declined. She did not force them after that. However, the woman did not try to keep her daughter away from her grandmother.
She would make her daughter spend time with her grandmother. One day, she was suffering from a blasting headache. Therefore, she asked her mother-in-law to watch her daughter. Meanwhile, she went in to rest for a few minutes.
But then the dreading moment came. The mother-in-law came in shouting and woke her up. She told her that the girl was not alright. The woman rushed to her room and saw her struggling for breath with blue lips.
She asked her mother-in-law to dial 911. Meanwhile, she used an EpiPen on the girl. To her relief, she was a bit better. The medical help came and started attending to the girl. They found a chunk of cookies on the floor.
Taking note of that, they started confronting the grandmother. Finally, she admitted to having fed her a peanut and banana cookie. The woman messaged her husband and rushed her daughter to the hospital.
Doctors put her daughter under observation. Her husband also reached there. To their shock, the mother-in-law accepted that she had been making those cookies for more than a year. She would carry one with her when she visited them.
She would look forward to a chance to feed them to her. They could not believe their ears. The mother-in-law was on the verge to kill their daughter in her disbelief of food allergy.
On the other hand, the little nugget was waiting to see her grandmother. She wanted to show her fancy band (hospital band with stickers). The couple did not take it lightly and decided to file a police complaint.
A Gracious Husband
Many women are lucky with their husbands when it comes to their mothers-in-law. They handle their abhorrent mothers like a pro! This husband is one of them.
His mother landed in their town to look for retirement hubs around. The couple went to the airport to receive her. Instead of sharing a warm greeting, she snapped at them and inquired why they did not keep a sitter for their daughter.
They replied that they did not need one. They had expected her to be delighted on seeing her only grandchild. According to her, they were spoiling their daughter. Not just that, but she also feared that she would turn up like her mother.
That miffed the woman. She said that she hoped that. After all, she was her mother. The woman was pregnant. But her mother-in-law could not believe it as she was a small woman. On the other hand, her husband was a big man.
Taking a look at her, the mother-in-law resumed her scornful jabs. She commented that they would not spoil their daughter if they had their new baby. Not just that, she also asked if they believed in birth control.
They could not speak any further. Then, her husband took the charge. He took out a paper and wrote down an address. Then he went ahead to hand her that paper and kept her bags down. She could not make anything of that.
He told that it was the address of her hotel. She could not believe it. She thought that they would take her along. Her son pointed out that she did not want to be with their daughter.
Not just that, he also asked her not to be rude to his wife or children. Therefore, he left her there and told her that he was going home with his family. He asked her to have dinner at a restaurant.
They would come tomorrow and take her over the places. He turned around and escorted his wife.
Food Scorns
A couple decided to spend a family dinner time by making it to the husband’s parent’s place. They got there early to help them with dinner. They started putting up things. She washed, dried and cut the stuff with her mother-in-law.
They wanted to ease the matter when they were to start cooking. Then came the breaking point. The woman ended up cutting the potatoes wrong. That enraged the mother-in-law. She asked the woman to get out of her house if she did not know how to help her.
Her reaction deteriorated the matter between them. Her husband stood by her. They decided to leave. They went ahead to prepare their thanksgiving meal and enjoy it over weeks.
Don’t Find It Out, Baby!
The would-be grandparents love to make guesses about their unborn grandchildren. They love to dream about their likes and dislikes and plan accordingly. However, some of them go too far with that.
This mother-in-law had a long list of negatives for her son and daughter-in-law. Her daughter-in-law was pregnant. She had been receiving the worst from her mother-in-law in recent times.
The mother-in-law condemned her female pregnancy hormones when she looked for support. Not just that, she also lashed out at others over her pregnancy. After that, she turned to dump down the couple’s wish to know the sex of their baby before its birth.
According to her, they should not do it because that would ruin the delight of becoming parents. Therefore, the couple had to pacify by assuring her that they had not checked out their unborn baby’s sex.
Not just that, she had another staunch belief. According to her, it would be a boy because the family had a legacy of producing boys. Therefore, she was in no mood to tolerate a baby girl.
Adding to their woes, she had also been blowing the trumpet of her daughter-in-law’s pregnancy around. She had told everybody around that the woman was pregnant between 8-10 weeks. Contrary to her, the couple wanted to keep it a low-key affair.
Well, she did not stop there. She also went ahead to share a list of ten baby names. The soon-to-be grandmother did not want the couple to have any one of them.
But the couple had their way behind her back. They got to know that they were parents to a healthy baby girl. Now that is what we call a shocker to the creepy grandmother!
No To A Male Gynecologist
Privacy is what everybody values the most in this boundary-less world. People want to have the freedom to choose to share their issues only with the person they are comfortable with. It attains a crucial place when it comes to gynecologist visits.
A mother-in-law does not think so. According to her, females should always consult a female gynecologist. Therefore, she opposed her daughter-in-law strong when she revealed that she had a male gynecologist.
But the woman trusted him with his medical excellence. However, the mother-in-law was not ready to give in. She tried to force her daughter-in-law to see her female gynecologist. But the woman was in no mood to compromise with her health.
She arrived at the clinic to see her doctor. The doctor had many patients. Therefore, she had got an appointment with them months before the date. But she was shocked to know that she did not have an appointment that day.
The woman could not believe it. She tried to reason with the help desk person that she had gotten it beforehand. To that, the person replied that she had gotten it canceled the day before. That left the woman puzzled.
After thinking over it, she turned to her mother-in-law. The mother-in-law had feigned her over the phone and canceled the appointment in her name. The woman questioned her over that issue. She admitted to having done that.
According to her, it was not right for her to see him. She thought so because only a man with loose character would choose that medical stream. Not just that, she also felt that only shameless women would see a male gynecologist.
Owing to her mother-in-law’s trick, the woman could not see the doctor soon. She had his private number and look forward to arranging an appointment to discuss crucial issues with him.
The Queer Anathema To Vegetarianism
Food is an indispensable part of one’s freedom platter. With so many choices around, people can pick their favorites. No doubt, that has widened the gap between vegetarians and non-vegetarians.
A woman had a 9-year-old daughter. Her daughter had embraced vegetarianism 8 months ago. The couple had been supportive of her decision. But many people around her did not see it that way. One of them was her grandmother.
She could not digest the fact that her granddaughter had quit meat. According to her, nobody could do it. One day, the girl came over to her grandparent's house with her parents. Her grandmother had cooked spaghetti for them.
The grandmother served everybody meat sauce. She turned to her granddaughter and told her that she had made vegetable sauce for her. After eating a few spoons, she sank in shock. She asked her grandmother if she was sure that it was a vegetable sauce.
To that, she nodded a yes. But her mother was not relieved. She checked her plate and food beef! Seeing that, the girl broke down. The woman took her daughter to another room and calmed her down.
Meanwhile, her husband confronted his mother. Initially, she said that she did not do it deliberately. But her son was adamant and did not accept her argument. Finally, she gave in and agreed that she did that intentionally.
She argued that she wanted to remind her granddaughter how well meat tasted. Taking on that part, she wanted her to get back to meat. The girl left with her parents. Her parents supported her and declined to favor her grandmother.
After-delivery Horror Moments
Pregnancy is not a cakewalk. It involves many ups and downs. Therefore, the new mother looks forward to a relieving experience with her loved ones and babies around.
However, one woman did not have that moment in her destiny. All thanks to her devil mother-in-law. The woman had a tough pregnancy. She suffered from morning sickness for months. People thought that she would not be able to continue.
But the woman aced it. She went through a labor of 20 hours and a C-section to deliver two cute twins: a boy and a girl. Everyone celebrated that moment until her mother-in-law broke in to ruin that. The mother-in-law was happy throughout her pregnancy.
But it all drained out when she saw the babies. Her son was black, and his wife was white. To her dismay, the babies were not black. Therefore, she took it as a sign that the babies did not belong to his son.
She thought that her daughter-in-law had cheated on her husband. Boiling in rage, she stormed into the hospital room. The woman was feeding her daughter. Then, she stunned everyone by slapping her in the face.
The hospital staff rushed in and called security. Police also arrived for an investigation. That meant that the woman was all alone with her babies after her delivery. Her husband and her parents turned her mother-in-law away.
They asked her to never come around them. The woman continued to reel under the trauma. On the other hand, the mother-in-law dropped in texts and messages sometimes to apologize and other times to curse them.
None of them wanted to see the mother-in-law again.
Dumping Stepmother’s Follow-ups
It is not only mothers-in-law who love to poke their noses and annoy other women. Stepmothers also have their share in the narrative. They also exercise their best to leave their targets annoyed.
A woman was also at the suffering end of the narrative. Her stepmother never spared a chance to leave her sulking. She would accompany her father to her house. She and her husband had put up a board.
On the board, they would come up with their priorities. The list included fancy items like a refrigerator, dishwater, and knife set. The stepmother would look at the board.
Then, she would pass a distressing comment and rue their inability to buy that item on the board. Not just that, but she would take it further. She would buy the things mentioned on the board.
Then, she would call the woman to show it off and stoke her disappointment. The woman could not have it anymore.
One day, she was going through a Christmas market. Going around, she landed her eyes on an ugly and pricey Christmas set. Her brain nerves struck up. She decided to make her stepmother fall in line with that.
She went ahead to put that set on the board. As expected, her stepmother and father dropped in. The mother-in-law made it to the board. Securing the chance, she started speaking high of the Christmas set. That attracted her attention.
To her delight, her plan worked. She received an invitation from her stepmother. The woman could see the ugly set shadowing her stepmother’s house. The stepmother flaunted it in the best way.
Breaking that off, the woman mentioned that she disliked it and her husband only liked it. That gave a setback to the stepmother. Her smile wilted in the best way. She struggled hard to cope with her frustration.
She could not stand it at all. Not just that, she put up an excuse of a headache and retarded to bed. After that day, she did not contact the woman. Therefore, the woman managed to secure a beautiful Christmas.
The Cheating Skepticism
Mothers-in-law are always on their foot when it comes to the emotional security of their sons. They would not mind keeping an eye on their daughters-in-law and their friends. But this mother-in-law could not pass it down.
The daughter-in-law was bisexual. But she was deeply in love with her fiancé. The mother-in-law was fully aware of that. But that was something that pulled her skepticism to a great extent. She was sure that the woman would cheat on her son.
The couple had been together for three years. But the mother-in-law did not trust her. The woman met her fiancé’s female cousin. The cousin was a simple woman and had a boyfriend. Over time, they became good friends.
They decided to go shopping together. They cherished their time. After that, they went for coffee at Starbucks. Then, the cousin clicked their picture together. Not just that, she also went ahead to post it on her social media account.
Her mother-in-law was quick to catch that. She messaged her son and told him that the woman was cheating on him. Not just that, she also shared their picture with him. He took it on a light note because the other woman was his cousin.
Not just that, but she also went ahead to share another picture in which the woman was sharing space with a blonde woman. To her dismay, that other woman was her daughter-in-law’s half-sister. The fiancé also showed her his mother’s messages.
They both could not hold themselves from laughing their heart out. After that, her fiancé had a big question before him. It was about whether to invite his mother to their wedding or not.
An Unbearable Strange Touch
A touch by a stranger is the most awful thing. No matter, whether the person is a male or female, it becomes unbearable to live that moment. That turns worse when one is pregnant. A woman faced the same.
She was pregnant and had gone to Starbucks for a cup of coffee. She was enjoying her time when she received a tap on her shoulder. She found an elderly woman standing at the back with a smile and was excited to see her pregnant.
Taking a closer look, she commented she had a big bump and asked about her pregnancy period. To that, the woman replied that she was thirty weeks pregnant. The stranger woman was not done with her inquiry.
She continued that she had a big bump. Taking it further, she asked if she was expecting twins. After that, she mentioned that her daughter-in-law was also pregnant. According to her, she also had a big bump.
But she used to eat a lot. That could also be a reason for her big bump. The mother-in-law also felt that she would have made her daughter-in-law eat better had she been there. After that, she asked the woman if the pregnancy was fun.
The woman accepted that she was cherishing her pregnancy. But then, the strange mother-in-law began to cross the limit. She went ahead to touch her bump. The woman got horrified and smacked her hand. The mother-in-law could not have it.
She called in the supervisor and complained that the woman hit her. The supervisor pointed out that it was she who went ahead to touch her without permission. The matter escalated and the supervisor asked her to leave.
Meanwhile, the pregnant woman braved bouts of anxiety with tears brimming in her eyes. The staff went ahead to calm her nerves by getting her coffee and a free cake. But the woman continued to shudder.
Mother-in-law’s Girly Reservations
Dreams shroud mothers-in-law’s minds when they get the first description of their unborn grandchild. But that is also when gender-related stereotypes creep in. They go out of their way to mind the gender lines.
A pregnant woman was cherishing moments with her husband. Her husband was over the moon after seeing their unborn baby during the ultrasound. He went ahead to share his delight with his mother. His mother was also delighted with that.
She commented that the baby girl was notorious like him already. Therefore, the mother-in-law had already made up her mind that it would be a daughter for her son. But the parents were not sure. Moving ahead, her son started sharing plans.
Taking on that part, he revealed that he wanted his baby to be well with cars. After all, they were his passion. But his mother was not up for that. She did not want her granddaughter to fall out of her place with grease.
She wanted to make her a pink princess. Therefore, she desired her to be an ideal girl. The woman could stand it longer. Thus, she dropped in to intervene. She told her mother-in-law that she did not want to impose gender lines on her baby.
Following her family legacy, she wanted to make her baby independent irrespective of its gender. The woman’s mother had raised her into a versatile person. And, her mother’s grandfather made her mother independent by teaching her the car thing.
Therefore, she would not raise her girl into a pinky princess. But the mother-in-law was not ready to give up. She again intervened. But this time, her son cut her short. He told that it was their baby.
Therefore, they would raise their baby the way they wanted.
Hogging The Naming Right
We also have grandmothers who love to cry about their right in naming their would-be grandchild. They also go a long way in imposing their choice. A woman had faced the worst on that front.
She was 22-week pregnant. Her fiancé was struggling with his mother’s desire. His mother wanted them to name their child after her. She desired them to name it Elizabeth. The couple did not like it. But she was not ready to give in.
He tried to be a bit lenient with them. But nothing was working. Finally, the mother-in-law called the woman. She expressed it directly to her. She had done the same with her other daughters-in-law also. Therefore, she had many experiences of intervening.
The woman knew it. Therefore, she did not budge. She snapped back at her mother-in-law. Not just that, she also said no directly into her face. She also asked her not to add to her worries.
But the mother-in-law went ahead to emphasize her right in naming their child. However, the woman hit back by mentioning that she was only a grandmother. She was not their baby’s parent.
Thus, she did not have the right to intervene. She could come there to play and pamper her grandchild. Other matters were only between her and her husband. Therefore, she wanted her to leave them alone with their baby.
After that, she hung up and did not let her mother-in-law repeat her complaint song. She was out of her patience and could not have it anymore.
Ruining The Wedding Dress
Mothers-in-law also see their fancy taking a higher note when they come across their daughters-in-law’s wedding dress. It all goes wrong when they end up ruining it all for their daughters-in-law.
The woman was at odds with her would-be mother-in-law. The mother-in-law did not like their plan to host a destination wedding. She was concerned about the cost. According to her, they could have a better wedding.
For that, they need not incur that much cost. Therefore, the couple tried to keep her off the wedding planning. But then, she would start complaining about her exclusion from the preparation. She was not all over with that when she started with another issue.
She came over to their place and started complaining that the woman was getting fat. Taking on that part, she asked the woman to keep track of her calories. Not just that, she also wanted her to check if she could fit into her dress.
Then, her fiancé intervened and asked her to help him out with a bed in the spare guest room. She left her mother-in-law there and went to it. After getting done with work, she went to the washroom. Finally, she moved into her bedroom.
She could not believe her eyes. Her mother-in-law was struggling with her wedding dress. She got scared on seeing her daughter-in-law before her. The fear made her restless. The woman jumped in to help her get off the dress.
After all, it was her wedding dress. She wanted to save it on any cost. But to her dismay, she could not. The mother-in-law ruined it in all possible ways. Not just that, she also found flowers on the bed. They were not there before.
Joining the dots, she realized that the mother-in-law was pretending to be a bride. Her fiancé also did not like what his mother did. The mother-in-law tried to justify her action by saying that she was making sure that the dress would fit the woman.
Not just that, she did not offer to help her out with the bill for dress repair. Instead, she started blaming the woman for buying a dress that would not fit her. Now that’s heights!

The next day, he went to the bathroom cabinet to have his medicines. But he could find them there. Therefore, he asked his wife about them. His wife did not know anything. Then, she recalled that her mother had used their bathroom.
She could have taken them away with her. Realizing that, she stormed out of their house and headed to her mother’s place. She returned boiling with rage. Her mother had taken them with her. Not just that, she had thrown them.
The mother-in-law did not regret it at all. According to her, she helped save his life. She felt that those medicines were killing him. Therefore, she got rid of them. Not just that, she also asked her to give him herbal tea instead of tablets.
The matter had escalated between the mother and daughter. The man had to explain the entire episode to his doctor and got another prescription.
