Preferred term

mother-in-law  

Definition(s)

  • The mother-in-law, the mother of one's husband or wife, has historically been a controversial figure in society and culture. While the relationship between a mother-in-law and son-in-law can be filled with tension, it is the relationship between a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law that is most conflicted. [Source: Encyclopedia of Motherhood; Mother-in-Law]
