[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But here's what: you guys wrote her a permission slip for bad behavior for a long time. Why would she change her ways if you always went along with it?

All this might have been avoided if you found your balls the first or second time this happen. You had a part in creating this bad dynamic. Why didn't you speak up sooner?

[b]Also, this might have worked: "Sally, I can watch them for an hour but really: one hour. Please make sure you are back by 4."[/b][/quote]
Not OP but this line doesn't work with people like her. I was burned the same way by IL's several times in a row. One hour turned into 6 hours every single time. After that, I declined any invitation to babysit.[/quote]

But it's on YOU that this was "several times." Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me.[/quote]

Not the PP you're responding to.  You just need to move to another thread.  No one is interested in your 'well had you just....' posts.  Better late than never and congratulations to OP![/quote]

NP and I agree with the other poster. You teach people how to treat you. Be a doormat, but don't be surprised when people walk all over you.

So why are you chastising them now that they're standing up for themselves and not being doormats anymore? [/quote]
