And You Thought Your Mother-In-Law Was Bad — 23 Nightmare MILs

Okay, so I kind of hate the “monstrous mother-in-law” stereotype because it seems pretty sexist and doesn’t ask a lot of us in terms of consideration for the person on the end of that stereotype.

HOWEVER.

After perusing this list of 20 complete nightmares of mothers-in-law, I have to agree: they’re TERRIBLE and everyone should get as far away from them as possible.

1. “Didn’t let wildly abusive alcoholic MIL hold our son. She skulked off upstairs to send us lovely texts. We bolted right out the door.”

2. Not sure I follow?

My mother in law eats one bite of a new banana every morning and leaves the rest on the counter "in case anyone wants one"
