[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm guessing they will get over it. Send your FIL's wife a nice bottle of wine, flowers for the house, something she'll like. My guess is that she is where all the tension is rising from. Your kids are too young to leave (all together) with an [b]older woman [/b]who has never had children of her own. She had no idea what to expect. Your FIL should have said known this, but maybe he thought it would be fine.[/quote] I am LMAO at how everyone is calling her an "older woman," "elderly," etc. I am 53yo and have an 11yo. 51 is NOT "older." It just isn't.[/quote] Defensive much? I suppose you don't think you were an "older" mom, either? 51 is "older" when it comes to taking care of an infant and two small children. Particularly when your last experience was 30 years ago . . . or in this MIL's case, never. Get a grip, older mom. [/quote]
