I probably am but just need to vent.
I'm suffering serious PND & need a lot of support at the moment. My mum lives in France & her phone & Internet is off at the moment so contact with her is spurious.
My ILs live just up the road from us & keep saying they'll help out whenever possible. But whenever we ask its a great big drama or they can't do it.
Take this week, DS1 has diarrhoea so can't go to nursery. DH asked in laws if they could help out at all just to give me a break (DS1 is 3.3, DS2 is 7 months). But no, they're in specifically busy all week & can't even help for an hour.
I know I can't expect them to be at our beck & call but honestly, they don't do anything...examples of her being too busy in the past have included having to sort her airing cupboard out, or doing her ironing...nothing that can't be postponed for an hour or two.
They have form for being difficult when they've got the hump about something (which happens frequently) but I wish they wouldn't bother offering help if they have no intention of doing it.
AIBU?
