[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I see what you mean- I have been pondering this myself. My in-laws watch one set of grandkids and we are pregnant with our first and they have not offered the same to us. Even watching the baby 1 day a week would save us so much money and it hurts that one set of grandkids gets this financial burden lifted off of them and have a loving grandparent to watch this part time. My husband doesn't think things necessarily have to be "fair" but it makes me want to try to be fair across all my future grandkids because it does breed resentment.[/quote]

Did you ASK? I asked my mother (not my MIL) to help with our kids after they were born. My MIL helped my SIL when her kids were born. I’m not offended that she didn’t offer to do the same for me - I didn’t ask her to do so.[/quote]

Many people on here don't want MILs helping. It would be strange for your mother to help you with a newborn, but not your sister, unless she had a bad relationship with your sister or played favorites.[/quote]
