[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can see this both ways. If my own father said to my kids "what do you guys think about going to the playground across town this morning??" without asking me first, and I'd over heard it, I'd think it was sweet and I'd probably get tears in my eyes. However, if my MIL said it to my kids without asking me first and I'd overheard it, I'd be boiling up inside and I'd be immediately coming into the room to be like "hey MIL, what did you tell my kids you had planned? Did you run it by (DH) already? Because we had some other stuff in mind today" because it would just be a knee jerk reaction to her CONSTANT overstepping and trying to bulldoze over my parenting when she is around. So basically- I think your reaction is clouded by your dislike of your father, as mine would be clouded by my dislike of my MIL in that situation. Whereas I'd actually appreciate it a LOT if my father did it. [/quote] Np. I get this. [/quote]
