[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  I think it bothers her.  One time after DD was a toddler she cried to DH and said she wanted to be a part of her life.

That translated into DH having to pick up DD from daycare and drive to visit MIL every week to visit.   Again, MIL never initiated anything herself - never offered to take DD or do anything, never came to our house.

After that we've been busy and stopped.

She loves to see DD, but she doesn't look comfortable babysitting her.  She puts her up in front of TV most of the time.  And DD prefers our teenage babysitter who actually plays with her.[/quote]

If this is how she goes about things, crying about a situation, and then expecting someone else to manage it for her, yet not being terribly interactive when given the chance, I think your DH is a genius. He's figured out how to put energy into the family he is buidling with you, without letting the negatives about his family of origin hold him back.

You have a keeper. Smile.  Also, lavish some love on him. It doesn't sound like he got that much growing up. [/quote]
