I have a one year old dd and have never had help from dp family. They come to my house once every three months or so and sit on my sofa smiling while watching her play, they don't pick her up, talk to her nothing! While I was expecting her they were here nearly every day (live 5 walk mins away) all excited about the baby. My dp asked if they would have her on the weekend (while we have a valentines meal)and got a very reluctant "ok" I have just had a text to say that mil can't do Friday as shes not well(last time she was painting bedroom and time before she had too much to do). I'm fuming and think I've had enough, i am so temped to cut them out of my life- haven't spoke to dp but know he's just as pissed off as me. Ps the grand kids of dp
sisters 4 other grandkids are visited all the time they can't do enough for them, they had sacks full of christmas presents while dd had about £15 spent on her. I have asked dp on many occasions to go and ask what their problem is do you think I'm being unreasonable to ask them why they don't like my dd? I know they don't owe me their time but why won't they bother with her I'm so upset she hasn't done anything that's for sure.
