[quote=Anonymous]My ILs are exactly like this!! My DH and his brother tell horror stories of their childhood. One time when my IL were watching my son when he was 2, we came home and he came running into the room with a knife in his hand that he was holding by the blade. There are too many things to even mention. So, That was the last time they watched him alone after that until he was 6 almost 7. When she says he can do something that's against our safety rules. I will tell him right in front of her that he has to sit in time out. She will say, but I told him he could and I have to say, but he knows our rules and that is against them.

Here's what you may need to do since your husband seems to have forgotten. Either talk to him and ask what the big deal is if you guys are there with the ILs. Tell him you want to wait a few more years till your kids need less one-on-one supervision. Or if you think he's not going to change his mind. The night you guys are supposed to go out and leave the kids with the ILs just say you've had a long day and you're tiered, headache, backache or whatever.
