She tried to come between her four sons and their wives for years. My parents split up and almost divorced because she would demand he drop everything and come running when she snapped her fingers. From what my mom and my aunts have said, she's the MIL from hell. A few months ago she called my DH (we'd been married all of 4 mo) and screamed at him because we were buying my parents' home (which is on land passed down through our family). See, my cousin and her sex offender boyfriend were living next door with my uncle. She told DH how dare we move into my parents' home knowing what problems it will cause my cousin and her bf because of the skids. She told him we had no right to move into that house, and if BM gets the bf arrested, she would never forgive us. Apparently she forgot that we've known this bf for years. He has always known when we have the skids and stays far away during that time. Then we had a family member pass away last month. She pulled this family member's son to the side as he is preparing to escort his mother's casket into the chapel to complain about his wife. She told my mom at Thanksgiving to just go on back to my parents' new cabin, and that she didn't need to be at Thanksgiving. She also threw a melt down temper tantrum (worse than any toddler could throw) multiple times when she found out my parents were moving to their cabin a couple of hours away. She's been known to start crying if her sons don't give her what she wants. Now she wonders why most of us avoid stopping by when most of us live within 2 miles of her.
