[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’d like to be at insignificant events too.[/quote]
So, move near them?  Or vent here, if moving isn't an option for you. [/quote]

I have a condo near them.

I also flew to LA to help my niece with her new baby and I flew to Seattle to help my nephew during spring break since they had no care for that week.

But I’m privileged. I love the insignificant moments.[/quote]

as someone whose MIL decided to come "help" with the new baby by inserting herself into the delivery room, complaining about having to take care of the other child, rearranged everything in the house to her own liking and then invited herself back to "help" with my wife's surgery, which entailed berating both of us (including my recovering wife) for not doing enough for her... probably not everyone thinks your "love for insignificant moments" is as charming as you do.

Ask if you're needed, accept the answer.[/quote]

I simply said, would you like me to come out and help with the baby and she said yeah can you come out for two weeks when I go back to work?

So I showed up for two weeks when she went back to work. I cleaned the house I made dinner. I helped at night with the baby. I got up in the morning since 6 am there is 9 o’clock here.

New are bizarrely angry at my post.[/quote]
