[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds like this is an especially bad weekend (ignoring you about the snow, delayed). As someone who spends a LOT of time with my in-laws, who drive me batty in all the same ways (sugar, judgy comments) but also have the same positive things (help with kids, close relationships that the kids love), some of this just is what it is. You can’t have the upside without the downside. If you made her get a hotel she’s just naturally going to have a less close relationship with your kids even if she didn’t tantrum. I’d get a Murphy bed if I were you. Air mattresses do suck, and someone sleeping on your couch does too. They’re expensive but they’re a great solution in a situation like yours. [/quote] I appreciate this perspective. I think you're right. Just a bad weekend. And, I felt blindsided by her expecting to stay all weekend.[/quote]
