[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have never seen a MIL who thinks her son should prioritize her over his kids, over his wife, maybe, but not kids. Most grandmas I know, put their grand kids above their own kids. But, I am not from US, so who knows.[/quote]

You haven’t met my ILs.  Their greatest wish (often expressed) would be for me to take the kids away when they visit so my H could spend every waking moment with them. They don’t seem to realize that he wants to be the one taking the kids where they need to go when they visit just so he can get a break from their suffocating attention seeking. [b]They also wish I would send him to visit on his own, which I have highly encouraged over the years, but again, he has zero interest. [/b]

Oh my, the pouting when they came when we had an infant and I was on maternity leave and desperately looked forward to any time my husband was home after work or on the weekends so I could get 5 minutes to myself or take a shower that lasted more than a few minutes....they were so angry he wouldn’t just leave me with the 3 week old and drive them around to tour DC.

This is really quite common - and the wife always somehow gets the blame! [/quote]
