[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My MIL has been disengaged from my kids for 17 years. When she visits she wants to be waited on, which drove me crazy when I was WFT with two toddlers. My parents, OTOH, know everything about my kids, have invested significant physical and emotional time with them, and have always pitched in when they come to visit. It’s like night and day. It’s interesting to see my now teenagers recognize how little investment my MIL...and BIL..have made in them. They love my husband but it hasn’t trickled down in the slightest to our kids or me. Interesting side note: I have a family friend in his early 70s who has been a marriage counselor for 35 years. He said that most in-laws don’t ask the spouse any questions. My goal is to do better for my kids. [/quote] I want more insight from that experienced counselor! Other nuggets?[/quote]
