OP here. You must have reading comprehension issues.[/quote]

No way I'd be getting on a plane to visit.

Your snark and anger is palpable.  I empathasize with the stress of raising kids alone, but you can't even manage a moment of respectful interaction with all the people that have come to this thread to offer their advice or support.  Me thinks there is more going on here and the ILs understand the warzone they'd be walking into without their son as a buffer.[/quote]

I don't see snark. I see an exhausted mother. I hope she has a good support network 'cause her in laws are not 'it'. Her DH probably knows his parents are like that and is embarrassed. [/quote]

No, OP is rude. Being a mother doesn't entitle you to be a jerk. Picking up the slack is not the ILs problem. OP and her DH need to figure something out for their own family. People have offered advice and OP has been less than appreciative. It's becoming quite clear why her ILs steer clear. [/quote]

Where is she jerk? I am a grandmother too, I cannot comprehend how one doesn't inquire about their grandchildren even if they live in another state. Let alone when they are seriously sick. Have you seen how COVID affects little kids? It's a brutal disease. Not to call or text is mean. I don't know what the relationship is between OP and her ILs but all bygones are bygones when it comes to grandchildren.[/quote]
