[quote=Anonymous]You will have to communicate your boundaries very clearly this time, and follow through, otherwise they will believe what they want to believe and then be offended when reality sinks in. No more Mrs. NiceLady. First, well in advance of the due date, you ask directly: "Sibling, I'm getting the impression you want me to take care of DC2 like I did with DC1. Is that correct?" - (sibling mumbles something in confirmation) Second, in a firm but calm voice: "You will remember that I felt used the first time. I do not want to be used again. I will always love all your children, but please find another caregiver." [/quote]
