[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My MIL doesn't get to call me at 7:45 and tell me where to be. DON'T GO. She shouldn't have raised her voice to you. But dessert--and toddlers--don't hold grown adults hostage. Next time it's time to leave, you say, "Nancy, as you know we need to leave now for Annabelle's nap." Then you PUT ON YOUR COATS, PICK UP THE CHILD, AND LEAVE. That's the end of that story.[/quote] +1! Married 20+ years here: my first instinct was to say "Tell her to shut up and get a divorce." However, PP is right. Just put on your coats and take the kid out the door. If DH wants to stay there with mom, fine. It's his mom and his job. Sorry you had to go through this, but DH should know better. He shouldn't sit by passive aggressively and watch it happen. You don't have to put up with it. MIL's his mom, but DD's his child and takes priority. He needs to know this now. I sincerely hope you have a Happier New Year![/quote]
