[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can you send her our way and she adopt us? My mom rarely buys anything and then keeps the new toys at her house, which our kids rarely go to (a few minutes away).[/quote] You have absolutely no understanding of the situation. I am sorry your mom is a pain, but that is not relevant here. OP, when you get pregnant, DH (and possibly you too) need to make it clear that what is happening with SIL will not be ok with you. At the first hint of any of this heading your way, say something. Be clear. She won't understand because she is mentally ill, but let it be known that you have a limit. You and DH should decide what that is ahead of time. Let your resistance be known early, let whatever crap go down that has to go down before your kid is old enough to know what is going on and you are stuck being the bad guy.[/quote]
