[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] My mother in law is 69 years old.  She doesn't check a bag.  Why the heck would she want to carry on the plane presents?  It bothers me most of all because she asks her mother to do this.  It isn't a drama thing.  I can't understand when shipping is free why she wouldn't ship them here rather than ask someone to hand carry them?!?![/quote]

Your original post sounded like you were a lot more annoyed regarding the presents and their indirect, untimely arrival. If you're really more upset on behalf of your MIL, it's not really your place to get between her & her daughter. You can offer to say something but unless your MIL says she can't handle this issue herself, I'd stay out of it. [/quote]
+1 OP made a big production of how much she spends on her niece/nephew, talks about how ahead of the game she is on purchasing gifts, how her child always writes thank yous promptly...blah, blah, blah. Please don't now pretend that you're only real concern is your poor mother-in-law. Give me a break. You're a score keeper, pure and simple. Own it. [/quote]
