[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I want my son to have a GOOD relationship with them--not food relationship. :) to be honest, they are not the type of people I want my son around but they are my husbands' parents. Their siblings are lovely people so it's just these two and not a cultural thing. If you talked to my MIL the civil war just happened. They have been watching Fox News loudly and saying horribly racist and classist comments to the pint I pretend to be feeding my son and close the door to his nursery and read and play with him to get away. They are here tomorrow with me alone and I'm going to lose it. I need to stick up for myself now if I don't I never will and it's getting progressively worse.[/quote]

My parents are similar in a lot of ways. They love DS to the point of insanity and want to see him all the time, which means I have to see them more than I want to. They plan long visits and stay at a hotel, but by day 3 I want to lock myself in the bedroom and not come out until they leave. I too want my son to have a good relationship with them, but they're not always the type of people I want influencing him. I'm very torn at times, more so regarding my mother than my father who just wants to play with DS and show him his old childhood toys. My mother, on the other hand, would do anything to be mom #2 as well as his spiritual guide. It's rough.  They live very comfortable lives but watch FOX, think the commentators are oracles and believe the government is going to land black helicopters in their backyard and take away all of their money. FWIW, this describes them to a T:
