[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Call him out pleasantly over and over: "Oh! Well, you had asked me to make reservations, but I am happy to eat here. Honey, why don't you call and cancel the reservation?" "Oh, well, I think our DCs are great, just normally rambunctious. C'mon, I will take them to a playground to burn off some energy." (And the blast DH privately for criticizing the kids like that publicly.) "Gee, I am fine with mcdonalds just not three days in a row! X Chain restaurant sounds great!" Battle back his negativity with cheerful politeness then give him so what the hecks in private.[/quote] +1! Good suggestions! But insulting the kids in front of them would get a bigger response from me - "hey, don't say that about DD!" and then I'd take the kids out of the house til DH is ready to apologize. If the grandparents are actually asking what's wrong with the kids in front of them, then I'd definitely take the hint that that DH needs to visit his parents solo from now on. That's pretty awful.
