[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I'd be surprised if family just came barging in but I'd never ask them to leave - especially parents or in-laws.

You will learn the hard way that everyone needs help at certain times and undermining relationships by thoughtless and rude actions will result in a price to be paid in the future. For most people, the only sure support that one can count on when the chips are down is one's family.

As others said, there were a dozen ways to handle a situation like this without being as offensive as you were. I don't know how close your husband is to his parents but if he is close, this may come to haunt you down the line.[/quote]

It is neither thoughtless nor rude to tell people who have not only ARRIVED UNINVITED but LET THEMSELVES INTO THE HOUSE that now is not a good time and that they need to come back another time.  What planet are you from?!?!?  She woke up from a nap to find people in her home!  The thoughtless, rude people are her in-laws.  They should be mortified by their behavior.

You should be mortified by your stupidity.

There is not a single person who is arguing that people have the right to arrive uninvited or to let themselves into the house. What some people are saying is that there are different ways to deal with these things. You don't make a confrontation about everything and you don't burn bridges especially with your husband's parents and in the process risk alienating your husband.

You inability to comprehend simple English is quite stunning but your willingness to polarize a situation that can be handled differently is not in doubt.

If you are married, with your attitude I feel sorry for your husband ....... if you are divorced, it is obvious why that would have happened and if you are single, you would save a lot of people grief by not getting married.[/quote]

I don't know what you are so angry about.  There is nothing I failed to comprehend; I simply disagree with you.

OP did not have a confrontation.  She went to nurse her child.  They chose to leave.  Perhaps they realized, belatedly, how completely out of line their actions were.  She did nothing polarizing whatsoever.

It is quite stunning that you would choose to diagnose the health of any possible relationship I might be in based on the fact that I think boundaries are healthy and barging in on people uninvited is inappropriate.  I assure you, I am quite happily married, as is my spouse.  You, however, seem to have a bizarre grudge of some sort - good luck with that.[/quote]
