My dh works abroad approx 3 days a week so really 4 nights away as he arrives home about 10pm on the fourth day. So at the weekend I always look forward to having a family weekend just our dc's and dh. But every bloody weekend my mil calls or texts to see what time we are coming over. Not when or if we are coming but at what time. Really f'n pisses me off as this leaves only 1 day a week where we can all spend some quality time as a family.
I have complained to dh about this and he suggests that he goes to pils with the dc's and I have a day to myself to do stuff but he is missing the bloody point! I want us to spend time as a family.
It has become an expectation of pil that we see them at some point every weekend. On top of that mil is a pain the ass so I would rather spend little or no time with her.
When we lived abroad it was the happiest time ever as we had all our own time with no annoying pils.
Yes I understand that they want to see dc's but I don't understand why they need to be so greedy every weekend.
