[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't bring the kids back down - tell them it is Nana and Dad time. Get them into bed and go read yourself?[/quote] This. I'd just plan to not come back down for the night. Or if I did, I'd make it VERY obvious I was in "relax" mode by putting on sweats. But...the issue isn't just your MIL. It's your DH's refusal to deal with this issue, [b]or to even SEE it as an issue.[/b] I'd have a few calm discussions about this. If he won't help back you up with her leaving, then the visits need to be more spread out. Say once every three weeks.[/quote] [b]Maybe he just doesn't agree with her that it's an issue?[/b][/quote] He doesn’t agree that she feels stressed and exhausted by the situation? Say what? Ha! Next time my DH says something bothers him, I’m going to say “I disagree. I don’t accept that reality!” Nice strategy! :roll: [/quote]
