[quote=Anonymous]The bottom line is--no parent should be judged for the schedule they choose to keep for their child. They know their child best, and know how much they can handle, how much sleep they need, etc. AND, as a PP noted, don't assume your gathering/party whatever is the only one that they had this week--you don't know what else they've already had to be flexible with. That being said, OP did not protect her family. She should have said "no" to MIL right then and there at the 7:45 phone call. OR she should have *gotten up and walked out with the kids when she needed to,* not made 5 empty hemming-and-hawing "threats" about needing to leave. And she had to deal with the consequences. If you're going to protect the schedule, protect it; don't be wishy-washy and inconsistent.[/quote]
