They have 3 GC - my DS 5months, DPS 6 yrs and GD 2 yrs (SIL), the way they treat my DS is totally different from the other 2, since the day he was born they have offered us no physical, emotional or financial help with him.
They haven't asked us if we need anything for him or bought him anything whereas the other 2 are constantly having clothes and toys bought for them and money given to them, they hasn't even thought to throw in a pack of wipes when they've been shopping but they always pick things up for the others!
In the weeks after DS was born they used to come to the house and expect me to run around after them and make tea and food for them, not once did they offer to run the hoover round, make a cuppa etc.
They don't offer to look after him even for an hour or so, so me and DP can do something, last time we asked them so we could go to the cinema they said yes but when we got to the house they said they couldn't as they had to pick DPS up from school as his mother couldn't be bothered to go!
I'm beginning to feel incredibly resentful towards them and am beginning to not even want to bother taking DS to see them.
To top it all off I booked for all of us to go away for 3 nights on the condition that they gave me their share asap as I'm down to basic maternity pay now and they are coming up with excuses as to why they can't pay yet, it's now supposed to be Weds when I have the money!
Please AIBU or not or is it just me being oversensitive? DP is beginning to see but he's very defensive over his mother!!
