Welcome back internet lovers. There's nothing as disrespecting and infuriating as someone trying to parent your children for you. It takes a certain amount of willpower not to have a full-blown rage episode when you see someone treating your child in a way that crosses your boundaries. It's even worse when the person crossing your boundaries is your in-law.

OP is a careful and conscientious mother who only wants the best for her children. This includes being gentle with them, allowing them to express themselves, and being understanding of their emotions. When OP's MIL steps in to yell at her poor, innocent child, OP becomes enraged, understandably so. No one likes someone else yelling at their children and trying to teach them lessons in strength and will. Leave it to your own children, lady. Have a good time reading this hilarious and dramatic Reddit thread about a mother, her child, and her in-laws.
