[quote=Anonymous]OP, you've got a lot of good responses.  I just wanted to add that I agree you planned as well as you possibly could have.  I don't you did anything wrong (and I think flying home 2 days early would have been crazy.)  But, to keep the peace, I would apologize again to FIL & his mom and then let it go.

BTW, I personally have never left my kids because I have PITA kids that go batsh*t crazy if I'm not there to put them to bed.  It's really unfortunate and I wish I didn't let that happen.  I really wish that I had someone else (even a paid babysitter) that could put these kids to bed.  Meanwhile, I know of many families who leave their kids w/ grandparents for days or weeks at a time, and I am totally jealous.  I don't think you were unrealistic to give this a try since
1) they wanted to do it so badly 
2) they are relatively young and energetic
3) you split up the day and got extra help

Too bad it didn't work out.  If you were my friend IRL I'd give you a hug and commiserate with you over the ILs  overreaction.[/quote]
