[quote=Anonymous]I wouldn't speak to them again :) (okay, that's not helpful. sorry!) Do you have other baby sitters? Are there criteria they meet that you can apply to the IL's? (CPR training, etc.?) My kids are 4 and 6 and I still cringe to let them spend an afternoon with my IL's - sugar and junk food up the wazoo, no schedule, no expected accountability (did you make this mess? don't worry, grown-ups will clean it up for you - argh!) but the kids are old enough to survive without long term damage that overrides the benefits of spending time with adults who love them. But until age 3 or so, when the kids can speak a bit more for themselves and are less terrifyingly vulnerable... eek! Glad you and your DH are on the same page at least. Good luck! [/quote]
