Just look at this woman, whose mother-in-law was an absolute narcissist and showed no sympathy even when their house went down in flames. She agreed to take in her son and grandkids, but not her daughter-in-law. Read the full story to find out how the couple finally dealt with the lady!

The angry couple also discovered that she had given away their son’s gaming console out of spite, and they finally went no-contact with her

Believe me, dear readers, when I say that today’s story is literally dripping with drama, all thanks to this extra-toxic mother-in-law. Her son and his wife, the original poster (OP), were at a school recital with their two kids when their house caught fire. Everything was burned down when they returned, so they decided to go to OP’s mother-in-law’s house temporarily.

She had never really liked the poster, but little did they know how deep the hatred ran, for when they showed up, she agreed to house her son and grandkids, but not OP. Her husband was furious that his mom didn’t consider his wife family, so they went to stay at a motel instead. She kept calling to say that the kids could stay with her, but the couple rejected this “generous” offer.

She retaliated by spreading lies to their relatives that OP was tearing their family apart. Much to their horror, she didn’t stop there. The woman had the nerve to make an official complaint at the fire department, accusing the poster of arson! Well, she was brought in for questioning, but it was proven that the fire was a complete accident. The woman’s evil deeds didn’t stop there.

She showed up when the family was going through the ashes to retrieve what could be salvaged. That’s when they found out that she had given away OP’s youngest son’s game console out of spite and even lied about it to their face. That was the final straw for them, as they immediately went no-contact with her after that, and refused to even share their new address with her.

Data reveals that it can take just 30 seconds for a small flame to turn into a major blaze, and an average of 358,500 homes experience a structural fire each year. Moreover, in a five-year period, house fires caused 2,620 casualties and $6.9 billion in property damage. Those stats are truly horrifying, and we can’t even imagine the loss people face after such an experience.

Experts stress that fire uproots people and might cause significant emotional distress. They further elaborate that it is common for people to experience several stages of adjustment, including shock, anger, depression, and hopelessness. The worst thing any person could do was punch the couple where it hurt when they were already down, and that’s what she did.

People online were truly shocked by the mother-in-law’s behavior, and honestly, it did seem like something a villain in a spicy sitcom would pull off. Obviously, they wasted no time in labeling her a narcissist, and I must say, I completely agree with them. As though not taking in OP and then spreading rumors about her was not enough, she went and did something even more horrendous.

Research emphasizes that “people with a narcissistic personality disorder are willing to exploit others. They also lack empathy as they see the feelings, needs, or desires of others as a weakness. Also, they display patronizing behavior, talk down, or act condescendingly.” That surely fits the woman’s description, and the couple should have broken contact with her ages ago.
