All families probably have one. Whether it's his mother or her mother, the mother-in-law is an essential presence in the life of any self-respecting couple. We certainly don't want to make sweeping statements, but the fact is that very often we hear or read about rather intrusive or inappropriate stories of mothers-in-law. At other times instead we happen to expereince these things for ourselves and we don't know at all how to react or behave correctly so as not to hurt her feelings. The fact is, however, that an intrusive mother-in-law is more a common reality than an exception to the rule.

Once you have seen this amusing gallery of images starring the misdeeds of these mothers-in-law, you will have the bitter confirmation!
