[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So what's MIl supposed to do? Tell her other kid sorry Dave but Larlo can't play with Larla any more because Rob's wife thinks he's going to molest Larla. Yup that's going to go well if my brother's wife implied my kid was a molester there would be hell to pay. Like the I make damn sure that side of the family was cut off from everyone else kind of hell

Op here, I would never say the kids couldn't play together.  (They are second cousins by the way)  All I have asked of my MIL is to not leave the kids unsupervised. Why is that such an unreasonable request? The kids are very much allowed to play in an adjoining room with the door open. I do this in my own home,  popping in and out on them every few minutes. But upstairs while everyone else is downstairs, or vice versa is not allowed.  I understand that some of you will think it's overboard but that's fine, I will always protect my kids first and all of the adults involved will have to get over it. 
Yes I want supervision to ensure that my kids aren't exposed to inappropriate touches, material beyond their years, and just for their safetyoverall. 
I wonder how many people would be okay with a sitter leaving your young preschooler in the basement while they were on the phone chatting with someone or doing whatever else. It's not okay to leave kids unsupervised no matter who is doing it. My inlaws want the quality time with my children and I want them to have it, but there are rules they will have to follow. Reasonableness is subjective here and for me the rules aren't. If they aren't willing to follow the rules than they will get quality time when we all visit. I will not budge on this. Thank you for your responses.
