Four Lines - From a Reliable Source

If one’s mother-in-law is a woman Hitler, the father-in-law might be a fatal whiner! Horrible women are sure to abuse the spouses who bow and scrape to such shrews. Merciless, malicious, manipulating matriarchs make mere mortal meek men miserable. Dec. 17, 2015 Anagrams: Mother-in-law/woman Hitler; father-in-law/ fatal whiner

Now this is excellent work that entertains the reader on many levels - probably the intent of having 3 forms. I don't know which is worse - a female Hitler or a male fatal whiner. I think I'd lock them in a closet together and feed them e-lax. The final line, using all M-words is one the reasons I wrote, excellent. Congratulations ... CayCay
