Overbearing MIL Demands Key To Sons House - Gets A Surprise Instead

She begged to have an 'emergency house key.' The OP knew she would abuse this key, so she gave her a fake instead. Keep reading for the juicy details and dive into the meltdown that this caused. Only you and the moral judges of Reddit can decide who is the a$$hole.
