Friday, February 6, 2026 - Media personality Toolz has stirred conversation on relationships and family approval after sharing her honest take on dating dynamics involving parents.
In a post on Instagram, Toolz posed a question many people
quietly struggle with: Would you continue a relationship if your partner’s
parents don’t like you? And what if your own family doesn’t approve of your
partner?
Sharing her personal stance, the OAP didn’t mince words and
said she would have walked away if her partner’s parents — especially his
mother — didn’t like her.
“You rarely win that battle if you’re at war with the mum,
whether you’re right or wrong,” she said, adding that it simply takes too much
emotional energy.
However, when it comes to her own parents, Toolz said she
would try to make things work.
She explained that her late father didn’t usually warm up to people
immediately and often needed time to come around.
