[quote=Anonymous]Don’t change your schedule, OP! In fact, work overtime! I have a PITA, low-effort MIL though. My local MIL used to remind me in my SAHM days that she HAD to work when her own DC were very young, never to schedule family gatherings at our house on Sundays since it was too stressful for “those of us who work,” and on and on. When I got a p/t job that occasionally required weekend work, MIL complained how awful it was that I had to miss weekend family functions (think I missed two). She also expected or demanded that I take work off to visit with her family members- I did so once and never again. Returned to FT employment and MIL went silent: never asked one question nor expressed slightest interest. [/quote]
