In-laws are at it again! (3rd thread about them)

[Woodenmouse]

I've posted twice before about how my in-laws are on another planet. They are at it again!
Quick background: they have no money and keep badgering us for money. they never listen to our wishes about visita etc. There's other stuff too but this ones money related again.

Pil bought dc loads of clothes the other day. Obviously gifts are appreciated but they always buy t-shirts for ds1 (he has 35 bloody t-shirts) we've repeatedly asked them not to buy him t-shirts but he always needs trousers and recently outgrew his jacket so if they wanted to spend their money on him these would be better. So they turned up with 10 t-shirts and 2 pairs of cheap shoes a size too small (ds1 also can't wear cheap shoes as he has insanely wide feet and cheap shoes cause him lots of pain,pil know we spend a fortune in properly fitted shoes). They also bought ds2 some new baby grows they've been repeatedly told that 11wk old as is massive and wears 6-9 month clothes. They have him 0-3 month clothes. I could have overlooked them spending money they don't have on things we can't use (and can't return because they only buy sales stuff) if they hadn't then said they couldn't pay rent. Mil then told dh that she wanted to go to Malta for her birthday (they are going to Malta next week for file birthday, spending money they don't have). Dh is now saying he is going to pay £130 for pil flights to go again at the end of the year for mil birthday. Dh and I have been on holiday together once and have never been away with dc because we can't afford to. I know that at some point as well pil will prob call and ask to borrow money. Aibu to be furious with them.

Sorry for long post

I know what you mean babe. Mil is the same I acutally don't speak to her because of her selfishness. They want money from us but what if I tell you they have never bought my daughter anything apart from bottles when she was born nearly 3 years ago. It's acutally funny when I think of how damn right rude and selfish Inlaws can be. just stick in there because that's their parents and we can't change that I just pray they move far far away looool

Oh sue that's awful. Pil but us all crap (anything on sale because they won't pay full price for anything). It's never anything we need/want they do it make us feel guilty. They will send us crap and then ring us begging for money.
