[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP here. I have a great MIL and FIL who live in town and always call before they come by and would not invite themselves over. I'm so tired of people saying "my in-laws never did anything with my kids" as though that makes anything an in-law does fine. Good intentions are nice, but good behavior is better. Sometimes when family members are involved, it isn't because of a genuine love for their children or grandchildren but a selfish sense of wanting to be needed by those kids -- or at least a selfish sense of their own importance and desires rather than the real needs of the people involved. I've definitely witnessed this before. So just because someone wants to be involved doesn't mean they are great people and you should roll over and thank your lucky stars for having them in your lives.[/quote] These are some wise words. Thank you for your perspective (I am not OP, btw).[/quote]
