[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How to deal with the hurt feelings? My inlaws retired here and made it very clear to everyone they didn't plan to do a lot of babysitting. Occasional was fine but not regularly. Fine, whatever. But in the year they've been here my SIL (their daughter) has bascially used them for every teacher workday, Snowday, kid sick day, gap in camp weeks, etc. Not to mention going away with her husband several weekends. We've used them very sparingly, maybe 4 date nights in a year. Husband says "if we can't beat 'em, join 'em." I don't know. They made their feelings plain and have not come back and said "turns out we can babysit more often." I know I have to just get over it. They are watching them AGAIN today. [/quote] Are you nice to them? You sound like a pill.[/quote]
