Disarming the Dragon*
Rules for Mollifying the Obstreperous Mother-in-Law

Ladies! If living a wonderful life with your husband takes precedence over battling your mother-in-law then Disarming the Dragonwas written for you.

Over the years we’ve experienced too many trials by fire under the breath of the Firedrake and now we’re wiser, bolder and stronger, and ready to show you how to remain one step ahead of the beast!
If you’ve just about reached your wit’s end with an obstinate (and let’s be honest, often bitchy as hell) mother-in-law, we’re here to help. Disarming the Dragon will prepare you for all the Dragonian words and deeds that’ll come hurtling your way so the Dragon’s eye of newt and toe of frog she keeps hidden in her purse are rendered powerless.

Indeed, the most pedestrian communication with the Dragon demands expert language skills,    psychic abilities (practically), and the skill to artfully don a pacifying tone at all times. But be forewarnedthat our directives demand that you entrust your reactions to Dragonian measures with perfumed banalities – Slaying the Dragon with kindness of course.

Easier said than done, you say. Then let us transport you into the mythological realm and give you the Rules for Mollifying the Obstreperous Mother-in-Law so you can leave the Dragon to her own devices to snort and stomp – two of the Dragon’s favorite activities anyway.

Disarming the Dragon is proof that two women can love the same man and still get along, and as the “Rules” become second nature, you too can bestow joy and tranquility upon your own family.  You may never be bosom buddies with the beast, but you can keep your marriage intact and offer your children the benefits of an adoring grandparent

So, let’s get started in learning the art and having a few laughs along the way.

*While we employ the term “Dragon” primarily for humorous effect, we realize that the image of a winged creature, albeit tongue-in-cheek, is not universally applicable to all mothers-in-law.
