[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is this a 24 hour thing? Is it out of town? Why can't they drop the kids off late in the day and pick up in the morning? [/quote] Op here, no. It's not out of town. SIL and my DH still live in the town they grew up in (I did not grow up here). SIL lives about 5 blocks from her old higschool. She married her HS sweetheart and is still close friends with her friends from highschool. They want to party and not have obligations for 24 hours.[/quote] You could say that you can't do 24 hours because you have other plans, but offer 5pm-10am the next morning. They can still get drunk without taking up an entire day of your time. Of course, you just hate them and don't want to make it work so just say no. You don't have to justify it by trying to convince the internet that she's horrible because she wasn't able to help you last minute that one time you had mastitis when she also had a 1 year old and 4 year old.
