[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here- we did have plans on Saturday night for friends to bring dinner and meet the baby. I will have to cancel them. [/quote] No. You. Don't. You don't HAVE to do anything just because MIL and SIL were rude and announced that they were changing plans unilaterally. If you CHOOSE to cancel those plans, that is your CHOICE. You are CHOOSING to be a doormat, and you don't get to blame that on DIL and SIL. Especially when you haven't even given them THE CHANCE to graciously say, "Of course, go enjoy that dinner with your friends; we'll make dinner here and watch Netflix."[/quote] Just saw that your friends are coming to your house. Still your choice. Either CHOOSE to tell MIL and SIL they can't stay, or CHOOSE to include them in these set plans, or CHOOSE to ask them to go out to dinner and a movie that night so you can have your night as planned with your friends.[/quote]
