Your girls are still so little, 6 hours is a long time! Also, if they are so difficult for her & if she has so many opinions about their diets, she doesn’t have to keep forcing them on herself. 🤷🏻♀️
1000% agree. She is obsessed with them and I trust her with them, but like you said 6 hours is a lot especially at bed time. It gets hard. And why admit they were not their best selves?? Pretend it was all good so I don’t worry even more!
That sounds like shit my ILs would’ve done back in the day. Next time say no. If she or your husband guilt you, tell them they can go together but you are not.
I basically said that to my husband. I understand date nights are important but A) don’t force it on me & B) don’t make me drive 2 hours to your house just for a play I don’t want to see. She drives me crazy. This weekend was a lot. She made a comment about what my daughter can eat & I lost it.
My daughter loves nova lox. I’m aware it’s salty but on weekends if she wants to eat it I don’t mind. She prefers that over the bagel. MIL said no more it’s not healthy. I said she can eat whatever she wants, don’t make her feel bad, lox is prob healthier than a bagel. Ugh the control makes me nuts
(This is completely anecdotal but my experience and observations have been it’s often the MIL who makes things difficult for the DIL-mom. And the son is usually completely baffled as to how to handle. Could cc ppl On Here by name given how much trouble their MILs have been 😊)
