Dr. Phil

Toxic and Offensive In-Laws (12x91)

Air date: Jan 29, 2014

After nine-and-a-half years with her husband, Jason, Angie says she’s completely fed up — with her mother-in-law, Kathy, who she claims won’t stop meddling in their lives. She says that Kathy rearranges their furniture, commandeers their kitchen — and once even came into their bedroom with a video camera! Angie says that she and Kathy argue constantly, and claims that Kathy draws on religion for her ammunition, telling her she’s the “spawn of Satan” and needs to be saved by God. Kathy insists that she’s only trying to help Angie and Jason — and says that Angie is the one who baits her into fighting. She also claims that Angie is a liar and a cheater and says she even doubts that Jason is the biological father of her 7-year-old grandson — an allegation Angie dismisses as “ridiculous.” Emotions run high when the feuding in-laws come face to face on Dr. Phil’s stage. Hear the nasty text messages the women admit they’ve exchanged — and how they almost came to physical blows! What does Jason, who is caught in the middle of the conflict, have to say? Does he think his mother is too involved in his marriage? Plus, Jason agrees to take a paternity test to prove that he’s really the father of his son — what will the results reveal? Can Dr. Phil help these feuding in-laws put their years of animosity to rest?
