[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, you posted originally to complain about what a lousy parent your SIL is. But as many PPs have already commented, what you're really annoyed about is the fact that she's infringing on what you see as your exclusive claim on your MIL's time to help you move.

Here's the thing: your MIL is not your property. She has a choice in what she does. If she wants to take on responsibility for your nephew, her grandson, that's her choice. And your tough luck.

And while I get that your family doesn't hire movers yadayada, here's another thing - you'd have a legitimate complaint if you had hired movers and they instead chose to watch your nephew. So the bottom line is that you get what you pay for. And kudos to your MIL for helping all her kids and grandchildren so readily. A little gratitude from ALL of you might be nice.

So next time you want to complain about what a lousy parent your SIL is, maybe you should look in the mirror and think about where you stack up in the rankings of DILs.[/quote]
