In thinking my MIL is truly evil?!

I always knew she hated us. Jealous of our calm and peace and quiet, that's what it is!

Well, now she has done something that proves it beyond all doubt: she has gone beyond the pale.

I defy any DIL to match this one in terms of pure evil; I defy any MIL to excuse her!

She has brought DS an old accordion to play!
Says it'll keep him amused for the holidays!!

He's only had it a morning and I'm already ready to claw the walls!!!

Just you wait until he cuts his lips with it.....

Sad

Yeah-shoot the bitch.

Or take the accordion away??

lurkedtoolong · 18/07/2012 13:23

Bitch. Leave the bastard - it's the only way to get rid of the evil woman.

Yup, work of the devil, quite a hanging offence, I feel.

Keep it at her house so it can be what he plays with when he goes over there.

gothicangel · 18/07/2012 13:28

my mil bought my son one of those, safe to say it got lost very quickly :)

Tanith · 18/07/2012 13:30

Will that stop him playing it, QS? [hopefully]

Be thankful it wasn't bagpipes

diddl · 18/07/2012 13:32

mulberry has a sneaky very good solution.

might cheer you up!

my mother bought my ds a set of drums....

MulberryMoon is right. Anything bought by gp's I don't approve of stays at gp's house.

Tanith · 18/07/2012 14:35

It's no good - I have to ask:

How in the World do you manage to cut your lips on an accordion??

My nan bought my little brother a set of bagpipes. The neighbours complained because they thought my mum was keeping cows in the front bedroom.

Crimebusterofthesea · 18/07/2012 15:42

Quintessential - are you thinking of a harmonica??!!

lacroixsweetie · 18/07/2012 15:42

Put a hole in it and claim you must have mice

SquishyCinnamonSwirls · 18/07/2012 15:45

Definitely a Nanny's house toy!

How do you cut your lip on an accordion?!

Badgersnatch · 18/07/2012 16:28

I bought DS2 an accordion, I love it Blush you could send it to me if you like so that he and DS1 won't keep fighting over ours.

QuintessentialShadows · 18/07/2012 16:49

Harmonica YES! Thats it.

It suddenly dawns on me what an accordion is, and your mil is less cruel than I thought..... Wink

nickelbarapasaurus · 18/07/2012 16:51

accordians are good.
I like them.

it's a more complicated but portable piano.

have you got a shed? maybe he could practise in there.

AdoraBell · 18/07/2012 16:53

Send it back to grandma's house for him to use when he visits, should work a treat.

mamij · 18/07/2012 16:56

I also keep banned toys at GPs house! "Otherwise they won't have anything to play with at yours if we take them home" Smile
