[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why does the subject line of the OP indicate that SIL asked something when she didn't? Why is any of this about SIL, when it should be about the relationship DH wants to have with his brother, and the relationship each set of parents want the cousins to have? Women hating on women is no exhasting. [/quote] You need to work on your reading comprehension. OP's SIL is her DH's sister. We don't even know if her DH has a brother. In a hetero relationship, how often does the woman have primary responsibility for caring for kids? Do you think OP would be doing nothing if those kids came over? When they're homesick and crying, who do you think they'd prefer comfort them? Even if OP did nothing and her DH did everything, OP would still be impacted because her DH would be spending his time/energy on the kids and not be available to her. You need to check your own internalized misogyny. You [/quote]
