[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I had huge misgivings about my MIL (the only grandparent my child effectively has) before my child was born. Afterwards, I realized two things: free help is AWESOME; and more importantly, it's awesome to have someone who loves your child even a fraction as much as you do. That ended up cancelling out a lot of the negatives about MIL. [/b]Also, life can just get a little boring and small when you first have a - to the extent that grandma coming over for dinner is actually a welcome change! [/quote] I didn't have huge misgivings, just periodic annoyances. But, I had the same experience - there is nothing like having people around who love your child. And, now that my kids are older (MS and HS), it is wonderful to see just how caring and loving they are to my MIL. Kids really changed the relationship between me and my MIL, even though it bad to start with. [/quote]
