Just back from our hols and dh has just phoned his mum to say he's bringing the boys up for a visit. Both boys have got lots to tell about their hols and wanted to tell grandparents. Also they haven't seen the boys for almost 3 weeks, dh faithfully takes them to visit on a Sunday, but hasn't been able to go for a while. Anyway, yesterday dh was looking forward to taking our boys up to see their grandparents to tell them about our holiday in St. Ives. But when dh phones his mum to say he'll be up to visit, she says oh no it's not convienent, their daughter also lives with them (she's 33) and was doing a night shift last night so we can't visit as we might wake her up. Dh offered to visit later on, but MIL says oh no, leave it till next week or the next. I feel so sorry for dh, his parents only have 2 grandchildren - our 2!!- but they can't be bothered with them at all. Dh feels really p**d off, but they are elderly and he doesn't say anything.
Does anyone else have a MIL who can't be bothered with her only grandchildren?
