I was a bit let down when I received the book. It's more aricles and stories of women's horror stories (and some are very bad!) than how to handle situations. I was looking for some great advice, but this book is more for laughs than helping.
The book is advertized as being written in layman's terms. For sure that must be because it was written by someone who had no idea what she was talking about. I'm sure she experienced some bad mother-in-law or something, but her book is written like a bad article from a teen magazine. In addition to the spelling and grammar mistakes, this book is all about "dissing" the MIL instead of resolving issues. The stories were sometimes funny, but I dreaded each time I had to read a part of the book actually written by the author.
This book has some wonderful points and ideas for in-laws...I learned some tricks to help my situation; if my mother-in-law would read it and accept some og the responsibility, we would be better...
