Disagreements with in-laws is a topic many couples, married or unmarried, are familiar with. In fact, according to a survey published in Newsweek, the average American argues with their in-laws at least once a month. And 16% say they do it a lot more often.

If you think your in-laws might be bad, you probably need to see this list. We've scoured the internet to find the wildest and most infuriating posts about in-laws driving couples crazy. For some of these in-laws, the word "boundaries" doesn't seem to exist. So, check out what these poor people had to deal with, and let us know in the comments the wildest thing your in-laws ever did!

    This was during the kiss when she grabbed him so she could kiss him. She wore white to one other sister-in-law's wedding too. The third sister-in-law she approved of so she wore purple. She is no longer in our lives for many reasons.

    Better idea - contact a landscaping business and arrange to have that giant weed out of your a*s. The DIL made something specifically for you. Show a modicum of gratitude, as the bedspread may well be the last present you receive from her.

    Most people disagree and fight sometimes; that's just the nature of human relationships. But, unlike arguing with a friend, conflicts with in-laws have more layers. It's not just about you and your piece; you can't just walk away from the relationship if you're not happy. There's your partner, for whom the in-laws might be among the most important people in their life.

    All unhappy families are unhappy in their own way, as Tolstoy wrote. And the things people disagree with their in-laws about differ from person to person. Still, in the Newsweek survey, most (31%) Americans say they mostly argue with their in-laws about politics. 22% also say they fight about lifestyle choices, and 21% clash when it comes to something concerning their partners.

    Mother In Law "Put Away" The Cookies We Left Out To Cool

    FullaLead Report

    It also depends on what kind of in-law you are dealing with. Given the anecdotal evidence from popular culture and media, you'd think that mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law are at each other's throats all the time. And research shows that DILs feel more in-law-related stress than sons-in-law.

    A 2012 study showed another interesting trend. It appears that sons-in-law have it easier, as they report having way better relationships with both their MILs and their FILs. Women rate their relationships with their in-laws at the same level. Men say their relationships with their MIL are three times as good as they are for women. What's more, they claim to get along with their FILs even better.

    Help - Mil Defaced Our Guestbook Photo!

    Man with “Mom” tattoo on neck in a candid moment, highlighting worst in-laws experiences.

    Hi! I got married this last weekend. My mother-in-law decided to write on my fiancé’s neck on our guestbook photo. It’s sharpie on printed canvas. I was told I should try rubbing alcohol to gently remove the sharpie, but when I tried a small area, it also removed the print underneath. I am at a loss of what to do. Does anyone here have any experience painting on a printed canvas? If I remove everything in the area could I try to paint to give it its color back? Or how I can fix this? I’m upset but determined to fix it so we can hang it up in our home.

    Professor Gretchen Perry, author of "In-Law Relationships in Evolutionary Perspective: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly", suggests there are historical reasons why mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law generally seem to disagree so much. Back in the day, the married woman would come to live with her husband, to a house where the mother-in-law was in charge of the household.

    The In-Laws Decided To "Prank" Us By Completely Rearranging Our Kitchen

    Kitchen cabinet with mismatched items, disorganized by worst in-laws, featuring snacks, mugs, and containers.

    My (M27) wife (F23) and I just returned from a week-long vacation to find our kitchen literally rearranged. We asked her parents just to drop by and feed our rabbits while we were away. Something they've done numerous times and are always paid to do when needed- This vacation was fairly needed as I'm in the middle of attending post-secondary and working part-time while my wife works full time and takes care of the house while I pitch in where I can. And after a 4-hour car ride we are extremely thankful for this break and look forward to preparing for another year of endless work. But lo and behold her parents left us another hour's worth of work for us to even use the kitchen, as a joke. Wife is more upset than I am but it certainly drew an annoyed snort from me which I believe qualifies as mildly infuriating. Pic is just one of several cupboards. Tldr; needed a break, got a break, immediately unconvinced upon return by people we love and are also paying.

    The daughter-in-law would be in a completely new environment, separated from her family and the people who protect her. The mother-in-law, naturally, would have her son's and the household's best interest at heart, perhaps exerting more control than needed. And the criticism, of course, would be directed at the new wife. This might just be the origin of the MIL-DIL relationship trope.

    My Parents In Law Keep On Using Our Netflix To Watch He-Man And Christmas Movies, And Change Our Watchlists Because They "Struggle With Tech"

    Profile selection screen showing avatars labeled "Not Parents In Law."

    My husband shares both his Netflix and Prime accounts with his parents and pays for it. It first started with his parents using his Netflix instead of their own profile and even trying to charge not-included film to his credit card on Prime . He asked them to stop but they say they cannot figure it out so he added a pin and in brackets that it's not their profile. We thought the problem was solved, but then I noticed they started using mine instead. I hadn't looked at Netflix for maybe a week and noticed today they apparently had a watch marathon - my entire history & front page is just He-Man, war films and Christmas movies. The algorithm is completely messed up at this point. Needless to say I got a pin now too and a note in brackets.

    Sister-In-Law Always Throws Leftover Food Directly Into The Sink

    Wet bread crusts and dirty dishes in a sink, showcasing worst in-laws scenario.

    My sister-in-law always throws leftover food directly into the sink, leaving it for my brother or my mother to deal with before bed. Everyone else is too polite to say anything, so they just leave it. The edges of uneaten toast soak up grease and water. I tried to passive-aggressively put it in a bag for her to see, but she still throws it into the sink. I'm just visiting my parents.

    In-laws, especially grandparents, often choose to violate the boundaries of a young family. They may come to visit unannounced, guilt-trip when the couple doesn't come for family events, share personal details about the family's life with others, criticize their values, and not respect it when they're told "no". Experts say that it's possible to avoid all these if you set firm boundaries, but how can people do that, exactly?

    Therapist Lauren Auwood emphasizes how boundaries without consequences are merely suggestions. For example, if an in-law criticizes a parenting style, the couple needs to present a united front. That reinforces their authority as parents. If they're visiting or calling too often, decide how often you'll communicate (whether in person, on the phone, through email, or other) and stick to it. Kindly inform the in-laws that if they drop by unannounced, you will not be opening the door.

    Boundaries with in-laws can also be very different depending on your culture. Perinatal therapist Dr. Zann explains that for people of color, the word 'boundaries' might sound like rejection and disrespect toward their community values.

    "Consider not calling it a boundary'. Using psychology/therapy speak may be confusing, especially for those from immigrant backgrounds or non-western cultures," Dr. Zann points out. "Express your needs, of course, but do it in a way that your family will understand."

    Well, I have read the Bible. Sodom and Gomorrah was about the lack of hospitality and charity of the locals to outsiders. Any sexual connection is related to a disagreement of the context of a single word - if meant one way it is sexual, if another then it's interrogatory, both contexts are used in the Tanakh but the former only around 1% of the time. That word has nothing whatsoever to do with homosexuality and nor does the story.
