[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You have the right to say no, so just do it. But this [b]one overnight [/b]is really not the major ask you are making it out to be.[/quote] True, if it were just a single overnight, it would be no big deal. Yet, you and so many others fail to see that The Overnight encompasses all snubbing, dissing, ignored opportunities that embody the IL's relationship with OP and her DH. If an overnight has no emotional baggage, it's simple. Add all the emotional baggage to it and it becomes something very different. I'm sure OP would have been receptive to a playdate at a playground and McDonald's for lunch afterwards. If you're interested in building a relationship, you don't do it by dumping your kids on people who are essentially strangers to them.[/quote]
