[quote=Anonymous]I travel with in laws like this. I actually enjoy the dynamic because I get to be completely in charge and don't have to feel guilty about it! I decide where we sightsee, what we eat, and they just come along. I actually think it's great - no arguments. I get to be a bit bossy about my kids and our itinerary and NO ONE MINDS it! Score. As for babysitting, we get date nights but only after setting up the kids for bed. Luckily in Europe everything stays open late so if I get to dinner with my husband at 8:30, it's not weird. My advice: accept the status quo. It won't change. Don't expect what won't happen from them. Release yourself from expectations, enjoy the ability to be a tour guide and make yourself go out with your husband at night just the two of you, even if you are tired from a day of touring. [/quote]
