[quote=Anonymous]You either have to sit down and tell her why you won't let her babysit, or find a way to let her do it. If you tell her why, it will insult her, and probably cause a big family fight. If you don't want her to babysit ever, though, then you have to do it. And I don't care how busy your DH is; either he agrees with you and helps you deal with his mother, or he doesn't agree with you and is refusing to get involved because he doesn't really care what the baby eats for dinner. How about another tactic? Can you go to her, tell her you're a neurotic mom (put it on you) and say that only way you'll agree to lether sit is if she follows rules a,b, anc c to the letter? Maybe she'll see it as worth it to follow your "crazy" rules to get to do this.[/quote]
