[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So, you are not actually home when they are coming over? I really don't see the problem. Maybe you will see later on as your baby gets older how wonderful it is to have family bond with your child and have a special relationship. My inlaws are annoying, selfish, etc, but my kids LOVE them. We give them full access to them at all times. I bet your baby loves all the attention...I'm sorry, but I think that you are being incredibly selfish here. I get that they lack boundaries and you need to work on that with other things, but this sounds like a great idea. Are you sad because you are working and not spending time with your child and your inlaws can? Not meant in a hurtful way, I am jus trying to understand the problem. Plus, if they are helping with dinner that is awesome too.[/quote]

It's selfish to not want a constant, weekly stream of relatives at your house during the day and after you get home from work? It's great that you're cool with being a doormat for your in-laws, but most people like to have boundaries set and respected, especially concerning their home and children. Love that you're trying to make it about WOH guilt, though.

OP, I can absolutely see where you're coming from. This would drive me nuts too.[/quote]
