[quote=Anonymous]Can your spouse be honest with his mother about boundaries? my parents come for extended visits (2-3 months), and my kids prefer my mom to me/spouse when they are visiting. It doesn't bother me at all, but they are my parents. It bothers DH though, so after their first extended visit, I spoke with my parents about giving DH 'Dad time". So now, after we come home from work, my parents just take off - they go for a walk, read/watch tv/catch up on phone calls, etc in the MIL suite. Basically the time from 6-9 are ours with our kids. We still have dinner together all 6 of us, but otherwise they do their own thing. They have time with my kids before school and also after school, so they don't mind. [/quote]
