[quote=Anonymous]I have the same situation. So miserable. I have tried to explain this dynamic from my perspective to my DH and it's gotten a little better but it's still not great. I think my DH thinks that his parents basically will take care of entertaining the kids or the kids are being more self sufficient than they actually are, so I end up completely exhausted and he hasn't noticed that I've been trying to keep them happy and entertained the whole time while he's been chatting with his parents or whatever. What's extra irritating to me is that my ILs do not host at their house, I get my own glass of water and that's about it. But when they're at our house they plop themselves down and make continuous requests despite how many times I show them where the glasses are, how to turn the coffee machine on, etc. [/quote]
