[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Of course she does because she wants some free service for mommy. Is she a manipulative person? Even if you are close to your MIL, you do not have to follow SIL's schedule. You figure out with your husband and your MIL when to visit. She does not get to run the show. Your husband is the one to set boundaries and say "that doesn't work for us." That said, if your SIL is acting as a case manager and doing some of the hard labor, she should be able to reimburse herself through any funds your MIL has. I would discuss with your husband and have him suggest that. You want to be the ones to take the high road and not take advantage of her either.[/quote] Oh I see your husband does the administrative stuff...he can be reimbursed too. Regardless, he needs to step up and set the boundary. it is not her place to tell you what to do with your time.[/quote]
