Hi. I have 2 very small dc, and 1 helpful and friendly Mil. However, she is very lax about safety. In her garden she has a large pond at ground level, uncovered. She regularly looks after her other young grandson, and recently admitted to me that when he's in the garden she watches him from indoors to make sure he's safe. He hasn't been walking all that long.
I told dh I don't want the dc at hers without one of us being there, but I know he wants to have a day out without dc, and mil is only option for babysitting. He definitely thinks I'm over-reacting.
I know everyone will think I'm being unreasonable to say no to her having them at hers, especially as sil obviously doesn't have a problem with it.
What can I do?? AIBU to not let her have them? should I relax about it?
