[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here - I don't know why all of the sudden people decided to start attacking me and calling me a terrible mother, but I think I've had enough of this thread.

I'm very confident both in my children's relationships with both sets of grandparents and in my family's need for boundaries. Thanks to those of you who provided helpful advice.[/quote]

Probably because the OP of another thread called you and some others out over here: https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/843373.page

It’s a very uncool thing to do, especially since you have a legitimately annoying situation going on, now matter how much you may love your in-laws.  Many of us completely get it![/quote]

OP here - thanks for letting me know about this.  Good to know I have some supporters on this thread.  I don't think I've been mean about my in-laws at all.  I just don't want them around all the time.  I genuinely like them, I'm so happy that they have a great relationship with us and our children, and I don't mind them visiting even once a month, but it's a lot to have to entertain people more than once in a month and especially mid-week when I'm also working.  And unlike an above poster, I'm not going to go sit in my room while my guests are downstairs, that's not my personality.[/quote]

You’re welcome! I hate seeing people get dumped on for no reason. There seem to be a lot of people on this forum who don’t seem to understand that you can love people deeply while at times also finding them deeply annoying.  [/quote]
