[quote=Anonymous]OP- you are still dealing with postpartum emotions and are very (very) much overreacting. Please don’t freak out over this and let it impact your relationship with your ILs. There is a W-I-D-E range of appropriate grandparents reactions and your sound great. And remember your in-laws have raised their kids and their view of what a grandparent should (and could) do might be very different than yours. It’s their relationship with the grandkids and they get to set the tone. You can, of course, ask for help, but if you are envisioning a certain relationship, it may or may not look like that. You and your DH should love and raise your kids and do what you can to foster a good relationship between your kids and their grandparents and not expect them to be co-parents with you. [/quote]
