Some jokes I'm glad I don't get

[lexica510]

You know all those jokes about horrible, critical, interfering, you'll-never-be-good-enough-for-my-precious-son-and-don't-think-I'll-ever-let-you-forget-it mothers-in-law?

Completely alien to my experience.

spiritualmonkey's mom, WarmheartedMonkey, has never been anything other than loving, caring, welcoming, and generous to the weirdo Californian her (weirdo)

My mom and grandma were the same way; they did stuff together because they were friends, without my dad.

I get along well with hun's mom. She is a nice person, and I like spending time with her.

Amy was very close to my mother, too. Unfortunately, she lost her own mother about eight years before we met, but I'm sure I would have loved her. I think the "hateful mother in law" thing is a minority experience that gets talked about a lot simply because it is statistically uncommon compared to the other.
