[quote=Anonymous]While usually passive-aggressive is not the way to go, in this particular case I would be evilly tempted to kill them with (fake) kindness and faux ignorance. E.g.: "Oh BIL, please don't worry about Johnny, we have the discipline under control." "Really, I hate to see you constantly putting yourself out. You must get so wound up about this!" "Oh BIL, Johnny just loves playing with those cars, doesn't he. I'm sure your glad he's so throughly occupied! Has [BIL kid] learnt to play independently yet?" Feigned shock: "MIL, why would you ever call a little boy a devil? Was that a term of endearment where you grew up?"[/quote]
