Fierce Female has been dealing with her boyfriend’s disapproving mother and his crazy ex, Jane, for three years. The mom would invite Jane to every family gathering, and both would make snide comments at Fierce Female’s expense. The breaking point came when the mom ‘accidentally’ gave her a cookie containing a severe allergen, forcing Fierce Female to use her epi-pen. She decided she couldn’t be with her boyfriend if his family continued to be part of his life. Surprisingly, the mom admitted the cookie incident was deliberate, and other family members apologized. They agreed to start fresh, but when Fierce Female didn’t invite the mom to a barbecue, the family became divided. Some say she’s within her rights, while others accuse her of forcing her boyfriend to choose between her and his family. Let’s see what the internet thinks of this emotionally charged situation…
