At my son’s 8th birthday, my mother-in-law arrived with a cake that said “Sorry you exist.” She set it in front of all his friends and said, “Honesty is important.” My son ran to his room and didn’t come out for two days.

My mother-in-law poured me a cup of herbal tea, smiling sweetly for the first time in years. ‘Drink up, it helps with fertility,’ she urged. As I lifted the cup, the deaf housekeeper bumped into the table, making the spoons clink. Three times. Two fast, one slow. Our secret childhood signal for ‘Poison’. I looked at the tea, then at my mother-in-law’s eager eyes. I smiled and said, ‘You first, Mother. Tradition says the matriarch drinks first.’ She turned pale and smashed the cup.

My husband suggested a romantic selfie on the edge of the cliff. ‘Back up a bit more, honey,’ he urged, glancing at the loose railing. Just then, our 5-year-old daughter ran up to ‘tie my shoe’ but whispered three words that froze my blood: ‘Daddy brought the saw.’ I looked at the sawn-off railing behind me, then at his eager smile. I stepped forward, hugged him tight, and whispered, ‘You go first.’
