Had a massive row with DH today. Sparked by my son not eating all day when left in the care of MIL who is staying with us for 4 months. She's going home in a few weeks and has not once cooked, offered to help with kids, tried to engage with them etc. I hardly speak to her as fed up now she stays in her room all day and shows no interest in me or the kids. DH blames me for not making an effort and says I should go and ask her to come pick up the kids etc. Am so upset about this and now seems he is not speaking to me. Says it's because I'm English any Jamaican wife would be more than happy for MIL to stay for such a long time. Can anyone offer any words of wisdom?? (Sorry for long post).
