An angry mum is threatening to divorce her husband unless he agrees to cut his parents out of their lives permanently. The mother-of-three has taken to Reddit to voice the concerns she has with her in-laws over the way her kids are treated as the "least favourite" of their ten grandchildren. "As the children were young and didn't understand it was tolerable but now they suffer a lot and notice the favoritism and visiting the in-laws has become an ordeal for my children especially when the other cousins are there," she writes.

"My husband said that 'I have no right' and 'he has the same amount of say to decide who meets his children' so I told him that fine, he could choose us or mommy and we could divorce and I would make sure his mom never see our children." She says her daughter already "does not want to see anyone from that side of the family" and so she's trying to look after her kid's best interests.

"Now she is calling my husband crying every day about how I am forbidding her from seeing her grandchildren which is beyond me because why would she even care when she doesn't like them?"
