Take my Mother-in-law...There's a reason there are so many bad jokes about mothers-in-law. You don't choose them, they just come along as emotional baggage with your object of affection. I'm lucky, my m-i-l is lovely*, but don't let that put you off telling us how mad your in-laws really are.
*No, really

Just legendaryM-I-L on seeing my son two days after birth: "He looks a lot less like his father now the swelling's gone down."
And the presents, dear god the presents...
Space Precinct figures ("Well, you like sci-fi...").
Furry handcuffs (Err, you know I screw your daughter, right?).
A mug with "Computer Boffin" on it (Now used as the work mug, for post-modern irony).
But on the other hand, she's also bought me a didgeridoo (okay, cool. WTF, as I've never expressed an interest in said instrument, but okay).
Oh, and a decorative four foot sword. The day before I needed a sword to conduct my handfasting to her daughter.
So, on the whole, I think I'll let her keep seeing her grandchildren, for the time being.
