She said in her post:

“When I read post where people say "your mother in-law is also your mother, your siblings in-law is also your siblings" I feel like slapping them into reality, my mother in-law is my mother in-law and can never be my mother, my sibling in-law is my sibling in-law not my siblings. My mother is my mother bcoz only my mother will always check on me everyday.
