I have a MIL who 'adopts' grandkids too!!! "Susie across the street eats just ANYTHING you put in front of her. She's such a delight. Billy listens to absolutely ANYTHING his parents say, he never disobeys! I just love babysitting for them. What should I get them for their birthdays???"

Meanwhile - she never visits her own grandkids, never babysits, and never remembers their birthdays. It's maddening.

If I wasn't an only child I'd think you were my sister.

My MIL told my youngest that it would soon be time for him to move out of the dining room booster chair at her house because Pseudo Adopted Grandkid would need to use it soon. And she wonders why we haven't gone to visit.
