What happens when a mom-to-be is tired of her mother-in-law’s (MIL) constant pressure to have a boy? Sparks fly! This woman and her husband have three daughters and another g*****n the way. They’re not trying for a boy; they just wanted a big family. But the MIL, let’s call her Janet, has other ideas. She’s obsessed with the family tradition of having a male heir to carry on the legacy. When the couple decides that they’re satisfied with four girls and the husband gets a vasectomy, Janet goes ballistic. But the real drama unfolds at the baby shower…
