[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are going on a 12 night trip sans kids. This is the longest we have left kids (longest has been 2n) and I worked hard to make this as seamless as possible for my mother in law, to watch my 4 and 6 year old. 
I have:
- daily pay for MIL
- camp from 8:30-6:30pm 1 mile away
- credit card to get anything ordered 
- play date/ sleepover and paid childcare on weekends with friends so she doesn’t have to drive and gets a break 
- meals delivered so she doesn’t cook

With 3 days to go she says she can’t do it and wants us to change our trip to half the number of days. 
I’m so frustrated with everything. She [b]says we are taking advantage of her[/b] and from my point of view she should have just said no or told us weeks ago. We are scrambling to change everything last min. [/quote]Did she have a talk around the bingo table and get told this?  Did she suddenly get an invite 6 days in for Mahjong?  What is her Day 7 plan?  Who are you comfortable with watching her?  What is the pay?[/quote]
