[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah. I refuse to give in.

We have hectic lives, our schedules are full.

MIL doesn’t work, is bored and decides she wants to bond with DD.  She doesn’t have a bond with other 5 kids who live far away, but DD happened to be in the convenient  proximity.

Well, I’m not going to add another chore to work on their relationship. Also, DD’s schedule is just as full. She has homework, extra curricular activities and would rather spend her time with friends.

Sorry, but my kid doesn’t exist to fill holes in your life.[/quote]

Let's hope your dd doesn't see how you treat grandparents and decide to treat you as you have done to your mother in law.  I feel sad for your dd and grandmother.  Np[/quote]

It’s funny that MILs want to have relationships with kids but we’re the ones who have to work for it.  We have to add chores and squeeze time in our busy schedules for arrangements.  Why can’t they just be helpful and help parents out instead of demanding to be entertained?

You’re not entitled to anything and your relationship is what you make it. You can’t just take, take, take.  That’s not how it works.[/quote]
