[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. It’s the lack of boundaries that is bothering me—opening a package addressed to me is beyond. This will be her last time watching my kids without me around. She will never be alone in our house again. She has proven to be nosy and meddlesome and snoop-y before; this is the last straw.

[b]Luckily we have no shortage of babysitters. My local aunt, my parents, my cousin, friends with whom we already swap overnight sitting duties[/b], and a few trusted former daycare teachers. We didn’t need the “favor” from her; this was a way for she and FIL to spend quality time with the kids, which they ask for.

Oh well. She can’t be trusted alone in my house, so she never will be again.[/quote]

I don't understand. Your parents are local and can babysit? Why the hell are they sending your hometown chocolates by mail to you?

Um, because maybe sometimes they travel to visit their grandchildren? My parents live out of state, and a few times have come to stay with us for a week or so, and part of the purpose of the trip is a visit, and part of the purpose of the trip is so DH and I can stay overnight at a wedding.

Are you really this bad at logic?[/quote]
