The story goes something like this: boy meets girl, and they fall in love, get married, and go on to live happily ever after. At least that is what fairy tales say, but the reality is often different. What fairy tales never tell you is that when Cinderella married Prince Charming, his mother also become her mother.
For some, this is a wonderful, and smooth experience, but for those who may not be so lucky, they may have to endure or deal with a controlling and overbearing mother-in-law. This story is not only as old as time, but so common it cuts across races and cultures.
It has not only inspired the creation of many support groups online, but is a common topic in newspaper columns, magazines and online.
