[quote=Anonymous]Women manage their parents well. Men are TERRIBLE at managing their parents. DH rarely shuts down any bad ideas from MIL and I have to be the one to do it- "sorry no! We're actually out of town for that event". Then it looks like it's my fault. Or if we both see her giving the kids candy bars for breakfast, dh won't say anything. He never explains my side to his parents or reiterates what I want. When my parents behave badly, I shut them down immediately. For instance my dad kept coming over and borrowing dh's tools constantly. Once I realized the issue, I put a stop to that. I told him he must text and ask us for the tools and they must be returned asap. [/quote]
