[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is not unreasonable for OP to be frustrated that her MIL doesn't seem to see that she is working/managing the house/watching children while her husband is away, and instead of MIL asking "would it be OK for me to come over and see Billy and help out," she's saying, "Can you do YET MORE and drive 4 hours to bring my grandkid to me?" Don't you guys see the difference between a simple request to want to see the grandkid (fine) and a request to drive 4 hours to BRING the grandkid to her? Why would OP need to add yet more to her plate?[/quote] Yes, but a healthy and very normal response would be "I'm struggling doing it all alone, can you come here to see Larlo?" Of course then OP will be back her bitching about her MIl always coming to her house. OP fails to see that having engaged grandparents is good for her child because it's all about her.[/quote]
