[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FWIW - all the prep meals/helper/etc was for MIL and she had a great time with them and was happy to take care of the baby after FIL/wife felt they were overwhelmed.  All they were doing by FIL/wife was sleeping, getting ready for school, and eating breakfast.[/quote]

Again- I wasn't there but I hope you can understand why my head was spinning trying to keep track of all that shit.  My kids are 16 and 14 so I'm closer to your kids' ages than your ILs' but I'd be overwhelmed with a toddler and 2 non-potty trained kids.  If you dropped your kids off with us, they'd have to fit into our schedule as best as possible, that's all I'm saying.

It sucks that feelings got hurt and it was a rough week for everyone.  Encourage everyone to keep their mouth shut, at least for a while.  I've seen family arguments go on for years over petty bullshit.  It starts out with some minor offense, words are said, more words are said in response, spouse says something bad because of the last comment, etc.  [/quote]
