[quote=Anonymous]I'm not sure how old your toddler is, but would you be ok with DH taking her up for a visit without you? What about saying you're going to visit x tourist place or y playground during the visit because DD will need to burn off some energy? Or have DH ask them down and say very clearly in advance that you have some plans during that time that you need to follow (or you and DD, so you get some time with your kid and DH can handle his parents alone)? I think you've got to start being a little creative about breaking up the dynamic. I definitely see how your MIL's actions were particularly annoying when you're never given space at all. Find a positive way to take it![/quote]
