why in-law's always give trouble?

It happened to me, I am sure many of you would have suffered.I have heard that in some families in-law's are responsible for many disputes among partners and they are responsible for many divorces and tortures.
I feel it is purely ego, that plays as a major role with in-law's. Why is it that they are not thinking that we are also one of their family members and why they are forgetting that they will also be facing in-law's in their life.
Where lies the mistake? Is it with the partner or both the partners are responsible?

Because they are just jealous and inconsiderate of another. They just wished that they could have something one has. They have a low self-esteem. They have too many weak areas that they need help in. They are just selfish and full of hate and greed.

It's really a case by case thing. In my first marriage I blame his parents for being controlling, my husband not drawing boundaries, and myself for thinking it was only his job to draw those boundaries. I can't say we would have stayed married without all of that but I bet we would have had a happier marriage while it did last.
Right now there's a lot of that too but I think my s/o is more to blame since he refuses to "grow up". And since he's always been this way his parents just assume the worst no matter how hard I try.
