[quote=Anonymous]First situation: I would 100% have allowed sil to pick up my kid after crossing guard duty. My sil did this and my kid loved it. Your reason for not allowing this is silly but you probably know that. Whenever a family member isn't understanding the situation, I step in for my kid. I agree with pp about running interference. "Oh, sil, Larla wants some down time right now so I told her she can retreat to her artist's lair alone for a bit." Then when DD is in her room, explain to sil that dd functions so much better when she gets some alone time, therefore you're allowing it even when relatives visit. (Google introvert recharge time if you need words to help sil understand how normal this is). [/quote]
