AITAH for not allowing my MIL to be involved in our kids' lives or be called 'Grandma'?

One husband and father found himself caught in the middle of a situation like this when his wife's mom came back into her life in her thirties after abandoning her for an affair partner when she was thirteen. The couple had two kids and were expecting a third, leading the mom to desire a role in their lives as a grandma.
However, due to her poor treatment of her daughter, the young parents didn't want her to have a role in the lives of their family. She was not impressed, and neither were some of the mom's relatives and friends. He wanted to know if they had gone too far.
