[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If I'm remembering correctly from original thread - OP paid MIL to watch her children while she worked; BIL/SIL would drop their children of for a "short" appointment that ended up being 9+ hours - they also expected OP to provide food and never offered to pay her back for these extra costs. When/ if she said anything she was accused of causing trouble and causing a family feud.[/quote] I do t really see the big deal here. Give and take. It's awkward for me to charge relatives for a favor. If OP hire MIL for childcare while she works that's different as she is making money in the meantime. If the relatives overextend a favor by not picking up their kids, learn from it and tell them it won't work in the future as it was too much to handle. Why would you charge the kids for food they ate at your house? Are they teenagers emptying the fridge. All in all, it sounds narrow minded. [/quote]
