[quote=Anonymous]We have a 2.5 yr old boy who still drinks bottles of milk in the morning and at night. He drinks them quickly and never in bed or to fall asleep. He drinks all other beverages from a regular cup or glass. DH mentioned to me last week that we should drop the bottle. A couple if days ago, I said, hey, lets not take any bottles to your parents house and wean him to the straw cup. He agreed. But here we are at his parents and I handed him a straw cup. DS refuse, which was fine by me, I just want him to get used to the idea. MIL said it made her depressed. So DH turns it into a show - telling DS he can't be put to bed by me unless he drinks 1 sip. Has DS in tears. Mil and fil get upset at the forcing. I repeatedly say to DH - it's going to take a week; you don't have to force him, he doesn't have to drink tonight. DH laughs and says, yeah, I know, I know. Mil comes in with "he need his milk." I explain how his calories come from food, how he doesn't need milk, and how we decided its time to be off the bottle. I take kids to bed. They sat their prayers, we read a book and turn lights off. Idiot DH comes in with a bottle of milk, announcing "DS, I have a bottle of milk for you." I told him he's undermining my (and OUR) decision and he says, my parents guilted me. They say a bottle is fine.

I am so angry. DH usually acts poorly towards me around his family and I'm fed up of it. I want to confront the ILs but today is day 1 of a week.
