[quote=Anonymous]Op, there is a difference beteeen saying “visit whenever you want” vs “I have a wedding this week, any chance you want to visit the kids. It would help me out.” My husband left for a 2 month long training class a week after our son was born. We knew this would happen, so I called my mom and my ILs and explained the situation, and I told them “I’m going to need help” and we worked out a schedule where they both came and helped out. I know it’s hard and frustrating dealing with ILS. But maybe they don’t want to intrude or feel like they are interfering with your weekend plans. And they might feel comfortable asking for a visit with your husband is home. Send an email that says “Hey! I could really use some help this weekend. Would you want to come down for a little visit? The kids miss you, and I could use some adult interaction too!” [/quote]
