[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Love my DIL. It's my daughter who drives me crazy. She expects me to constantly be there for her as a babysitter but would never put herself out to be present at a family gathering, even for an hour, unless there's something in it for her (someone visiting she wants to see or expected gifts on holidays).[/quote]

Can you be my MIL!?  We have the exact opposite problem with MIL.  She is so caught up in her daughter's life - babysitting, cooking, laundry, etc., that she basically ignores her DS (my DH). She answers DH's calls with texts.  She sent him a text on his first Father's Day - she did not even call!  We beg her and FIL to visit us and their grandson, but they can never visit without SIL, niece and BIL and it is for the shortest period of time possible.  When we visit, MIL is conveniently always working, cannot take a day off when we are in town because she uses all her vacation to go to SIL.  If she is off work, she has plans with SIL and niece to shop, etc.  It is pretty sad.  [/quote]
