[quote=Anonymous]I don't get along with my SIL either, first and foremost she has lied to me and set me up for failure too many times, She has used me and purposely excludes me from things. she is manipulative, conniving, selfish, and has a control type of personality. We both have two children about the same age and she is constantly wanting them to play together. I know it's important for them to get to know each other and grow up together, and I would feel fine if they were at my home, in my supervision....However she doesn't let them come over here very often.......even when she is invited to stay( Once in the last 6 months) She prefers to take them for me for a few hours , ( Babysit)  not inviting me to the playdate.  how do I let me children play with the children of someone I don't like as a person. Especially unsupervised by me?? Someone who has such characteristics that I would not want my children to pick up?? If it were a person outside my family....I would definatley not allow them to babysit for me let alone allow them to take my children. Bottom line..........I don't trust my SIL motives for wanting my children over.....Nor do I trust that she will not use the visit someway to manipulate or play a headgame with. So I choose to leave our visits and the visits of our children for family get togethers. We get together often enough ( at least once a month) for that to be enough contact in my book. I don't believe there are too many "cousins" out there that are best friends...........and if there are their parents are probably people who respect each other...........with that lacking in my relationship with my SIL, how can we ever be close???[/quote]
