[quote=Anonymous]We have a similar issue except that my MIL lives in town with us and has this idea that she really wants my 5 year old to go stay overnight at her house. I see absolutely no reason to do this -- if DH and I want to go out at night, she can come to our house and watch him there (which she does sometimes), and we have a younger kid, too, so even if he goes to her house, it's not like we'll have the house to ourselves. Plus, she lives here, so it's not like going to her house would be a chance to see someplace different. It's literally 15-20 minutes from our house. It just seems like an annoyance to me because I know he's going to come home exhausted the next day and be a pill. I think it's fine if your kid wants to, but you don't have to do it unless you're ready. Why not try out one night? If your kid is excited and wants to do it, one night will be no problem.[/quote]
