Mother-In-Law Stories Dr. Apter Research Paper Indeed, the touchiness or sensitivity often displayed by daughters-in-law to a mother's-in-law behaviour is close to that of an adolescent's to her mother (Apter 1990). A thirty-four-year-old woman complained that her mother-in-law takes over as mother when she visits. However, a woman does naturally enough have invested interests in the well-being of her son and grandchildren; and when the daughter-in-law perceives her remarks and behaviour within the home as attempts to manipulate the daughter-in-law into her "proper place", the daughter's-in-law perceptions may be accurate. www.motherinlawstories.com /terri_apter_research_paper.htm   (2421 words)

New Scientist Breaking News - Mothers-in-law increase child's risk of death While mum's mother can be sure she's cooing at her own flesh and blood, there is always the chance that dad - and his parents - have been duped into looking after the milkman's kid. It might pay the father's mother to destabilise the relationship, freeing her son to explore pastures new.

Killer Mothers in Law - COMPLETELY off-topic - Car Discussion Forums - Helping the Automotive Community Online German scientists claim mothers-in-law are such a menace that the presence of a father's mother in a family might increase the chance of a child dying.

The report, in the New Scientist magazine, speculates that harassment of the mother by a father's mother might have had a negative effect on the child. www.automotivehelper.com /topic67063.htm   (181 words)
