[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe next time she brings it up you could suggest the first intermediate step of her watching the kids overnight at your house while you and DH go away for the night. If she says yes, great. If she says no or seems reluctant, that will help you in future discussions about solo trips. She may just be fantasizing to herself. You could just keep saying, “let’s see” and “maybe.” If you have to give a firm “no,” let your DH do it. [/quote] This. Or just take them for the day during a visit while you and DH run errands. See how that goes and if it's bad, you're done discussing it.[/quote] Yes to both of these things. I keep it vague, and make my DH follow up with any firm refusals.[/quote]
