[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mom and MIL called a lot and mostly at inconvenient times without much concern about time difference. As a result of my experiences, I'm very sensitive about respecting my boundaries.[/quote] +1. Mom called every night, whether there was something to talk about or not. It was really disruptive and disrespectful, as DH and I were raising two kids while both working FT. Whenever I’d try to point out how disruptive it was, she’d point to my sister, who is child-free and retired in her 40s, and who indulged this. A compromise for mom was calling an hour later. I miss my mom, but not that. I, too, am very respectful of my kids’ boundaries. [/quote]
