[quote=Anonymous]I have a 2 year old daughter. My ILs live a couple hours away, my parents are in town. Both comment often that the other set of grandparents see her more than they do. Honestly, they all see her fairly equally. We both work full times, so weekends are precious. We saw my ILs this weekend and it had been 6 weeks prior to that. We'd seen my parents 3x in that same span and have plans with them this weekend.

Our daycare has a grandparents day event Friday morning. We invited both sets of grandparents. I was kind of surprised my ILs wanted to drive up for it, but hey, they're retired and if they want to, great! My parents work part time and both are planning to come.

My mom was super excited for this ... Until she heard my ILs were coming. She is requesting I schedule them at different times so my parents get their own time with my DD since "my ILs see her so much more". Ugh.... This is a come and go thing over the course of several hours. There is no scheduling. She's just being a pain in the ass. My mom is way worse about this shit than my ILs. I just want to tell my mom to get over herself and be happy that my DD has two sets of grandparents that both love her so much. I toyed with not inviting anyone because I knew how this would go ...

How do I shut this down? I'm so over it.[/quote]
