[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m a FTM and a little hormonal. The IL’s just came by to see the new baby and their kid was a NIGHTMARE the entire time. Jumping on the couches from cushion to cushion, sticking his hands and face in our newborns face after we repeatedly asked him not to. Terrorizing the pets and chasing them through the house. My SIL asked my husband if this behavior was ok and my husband just shrugged. I let the cats out and took the baby away after about 10 minutes, sat in the bedroom nursing and their kid busts in the bedroom while I’m nursing LO. I used a stern voice and said this room is off limits and asked him to go find his mom. My husband wants to make excuses for their kid because he’s 4. WWYD if this was your kid?! SIL and BIL didn’t really keep an eye on him and let him run rampant throughout the house. I’m not ok with it and have asked DH to not invite them over again for a while unless they bring toys for him or play outside now that it’s warm. [/quote] You have every right to be annoyed and expect the parents to stop the misbehavior. However, he is only four and is still little it is his parents responsibility to discipline him. Do not hold it against him for behaving like a four year old. I know it is hard to believe but your newborn will be four and might misbehave as well. You might do things differently but, I bet you hope that your kid won't be judged forever if he does act up. Unless you want bad feelings do not banish the kid. Meet them at the park or outside your home if you don't want him coming over. I'm sure the kid will be busy and unless they live next door won't see them too much.[/quote]
