  • Life will be much easier if you like them & they like you. In an ideal situation it would be a wonderful extension of family.However that hasn't been my experience.When our kids came along it got even worse.
  • Sometimes the stres is solely caused by the couple. My now elderly Granny has tolerated all three of my Mom's husbands, and did it with grace, respect, and kindness. My Mom went from bad, worse, to you've got to be kidding me! My Granny warned her each time not to marry these men and everything she said about them was true. The stress of dealing with my Mom being in toxic relationships caused my family to stress,too. The best part of my Mom's marriages were the in-laws. I have seen my mother unhappy for way to long and she deserves to be happy. She's in her 60's now and I worry about her alot. She suffered a heart attack from the stress of this current marriage and it's hard for me to be around her husband without feeling anger towards him. Sometimes I secretly wish he'd just disappear. And if I could choose the right man for her she would be treated like the Queen she truly is.
  • It wouldn't surprise me if it was often. I found that my mother-in-law caused much stress and strife in the early years of our marriage; and I think she did it intentionally!
  • mine was love marriage and my husband left me in few days b'cos of my mother in law. she harassed me a lot, put wrong blame on me, insulted my parents day and night - forced me to leave job,etc. And my hubby was mama's boy - told me to accept everything b'cos he had married me against her wishes - so he expected me to listen and do whatever she said whole life. then later his mom somehow convinced him that i am not a good female - and that i trapped him in this marriage so he left me. then i finally realized that he never loved me - so i now thank his mom that she indirectly saved me from wasting my life and love on a wrong person.
  • both my sister in law and brother in law has been through divorces thanks to there mother. my husband just refuses to listen to her or either spends many months not talking to her. if he had did things the way she wated we would have been divorce long ago
