[quote=Anonymous]OP, when they complain that your parents see the kids more often, your ILs are giving you the perfect opportunity to ask for their help. When they complain, say, "You're right, Barbara, my parents have been with the kids a lot helping us with X because we've got a lot on our plates with the kids' chronic health problems and Bill being away for work a good bit of the time. Do you think you and FIL could come (fill in days/times) and help with Y? The kids and I would love your help and support and I know you'd be proud to see how the kids are handling their illness." Put it right back on them.[/quote]
