TikTok is a platform brimming with diverse content, from culinary delights on FoodTok to literary discussions on BookTok. However, for those who thrive on drama, the trending Mother-in-Law-Tok is a treasure trove. Users are taking to the app to recount the outrageous and often hurtful things their mothers-in-law have said and done, and some of these stories are jaw-dropping (unless, of course, your own mother-in-law has outdone them all—if so, we’re waiting for your TikTok!).

One viral sensation, influencer Laura Thompson, struck a chord with her March video featuring some classic mother-in-law remarks, including:

  • “I’m sorry that I care!”
  • “Of course I’m wearing white to my son’s wedding; it’s my day too!”
  • “I know a thing or two about raising children.”
  • “You may be his wife, but I raised him.”
  • “Whose side are you on, David?”

Her video resonated with numerous viewers, prompting many to share their own tales of mother-in-law chaos. Responses ranged from humor to horror, with one commenter quipping, “If you know how to raise a child, then why am I doing it alongside my own?” and another expressing anxiety as they planned their wedding.

Exploring hashtags like #toxicMIL and #motherinlaw reveals a comedic goldmine, presenting a plethora of stories about mothers-in-law donning white on wedding days or even attempting to wear full bridal gowns.

One particularly shocking tale involved a mother-in-law who told her son she would fund a lawyer for him after marriage because “it’s not too late!” Another shared a chilling inquiry about where her daughter-in-law would stay if her son chose to end the relationship: “When he’s over it and I tell him to throw you out, will your mom take you back?” YIKES!

While there are certainly wonderful mothers-in-law out there, they don’t seem to make headlines on TikTok—after all, who wants to share a sweet story when the dramatic ones are so much more entertaining? If you happen to have a mother-in-law who keeps the drama at bay, today might be the perfect day to express your gratitude.
