Today, my mother found out that my fiancée broke up with her last boyfriend because she didn't want kids and he did. She's now demanding that I either change her mind, or call things off with her. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my fiancé won't tell people we're engaged because his mother doesn't approve, and he doesn't want to upset her. FML
Today, I brought my boyfriend of 2 weeks home to meet my mom and she started talking about how she really wants a lot of grand-kids. He called 2 hours later and broke up with me. FML
Today, my boyfriend just told me that his mom told him to break up with me, and that she would pay him to do it. His mom is a bitch. FML
Today, my fiancé called off our engagement and broke up with me abruptly, because his mom "wouldn’t approve and I deserve a mother-in-law who would approve.” His mother passed away from COVID last year. I later found out that “mom” was code word for his other girlfriend, who he’s been seeing for a year. FML
Today, my future mother-in-law finally admitted that I'm "not the girl for her son" and that she will do anything to break us up. FML
Today, I was talking to my mom about how my fiancé has been ignoring me and that I didn't know why. Turns out, my mother told him that I was too much of a handful, was mentally disturbed and also cheating on him. Just so I wouldn't move out and would keep cleaning her house for free. FML
Today, my fiancée handed me her engagement ring back and told me she felt like she's pressuring me into marriage, so to make me feel better about it we’re no longer engaged. On top of this, I found out she’s started talking to her ex again. FML
Today, my mother threatened to disown me if I didn't break up with my tattooed girlfriend. FML
Today, I was busy going over wedding plans with my fiancé, when my mother called. Apparently, she wants me to "drop the joke" about this "fake engagement", because she was under the impression I was only dating a white guy to piss her and dad off, and was now getting carried away with it. FML
Today, my girlfriend's mom pulled me aside and started telling me about how her daughter was extremely depressed and suicidal before she met me, and how happy her family is because of me. I was planning on breaking up with her within the next week. FML

You need to put your mother in her place NOW and always present a United front with your fiancee. otherwise your mother will do anything in her power to run her off and will overstep every boundary. Mother must be reminded that she has no power and do not be afraid to put her in time out if necessary

Well, it seems you don't want kids either or else you wouldn't stay with her (or she would break up with you too actually haha), so time to tell your mom you're not going to give her grand-children and that it's not up to her.

She's right! How dare you screw her out of grandchildren! The deal has always been that she'd put with the bullshit of raising you in exchange for the future joy of being a grandma. Don't stiff her on this!

It’s funny because normally one would screw her into grandchildren.

Your mom is not now, nor will ever be, entitled to grandchildren and you are not obligated to have children. If she won't respect you and your fiancée's choice and keeps harassing the both of you, block her on everything and go no contact with her.
