[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't ever leave my 4 year with my 70 yo mil because she 1) thinks he doesn't need naps (he melts down without them 2) forces food on him (resulting in vomiting more than once 3) thinks I fasten the straps on his car seat too tight [b](I once caught her driving him in the front seat with no seat belt and not in his car seat (one was in her back seat) bc he cried about getting into it.[/b]

So...meh. She can visit whenever she wants but she is never ever going to be in charge. I am totally ok with the fallout that occurs as a result. [/quote]

OMG, your MIL is a serious contender for worst MIL of the year with that. There was a post earlier this fall where a pregnant mom was sharing how she was concerned about her MIL invading her space once the baby was born. One poster shared how her MIL was banned from their house after she took the newborn baby to see a friend several hours away. I thought that post was the winner, but your is just as bad. [/quote]

The funny thing is... She is great. Funny. generous. Loving.  And I love her dearly. But  she is completely untrustworthy when it comes to basic safety or common sense decisions because she cannot / will not do anything if it makes my son unhappy or cry. So...positive intent, but bad result. [/quote]
