Living with your mother-in-law can be challenging, especially when she overstays her welcome and starts to invade your personal space. In this scenario, a woman’s mother-in-law moves in with her and her husband while her house is being renovated. The mother-in-law takes it upon herself to start taking over the woman’s bedroom, including her closet, without her consent. When the woman confronts her mother-in-law, she gets berated by her husband for being petty. The woman then throws her mother-in-law’s clothes out of the bedroom, causing a fight between her and her husband. Now, the question is, who is in the wrong here? Was the woman justified in her actions, or was she being unreasonable? Let’s take a closer look at the situation and hear what others have to say.
