Generally get along with PILs, and have been walking around to their house so they can see DD, while DH their son is at work mon-fri 6-7. He was planning to come round tonight to see them, So when MIL called I mentioned it, so that she knows as she likes to cook up a feast for him, and she replied 'Why does he need permission' as if I'm stopping him going round,it's a new job so new work hours, So I let it slip. Just come round now by myself, and they are both grabbing DD and trying to cuddle her, when she's just started walking so doesn't want to be picked up,now they are telling me she'll not want to come home when she

Yeah I would, sounds like you're making a lot of effort and going out of your way for a pair of selfish dickheads.

Going on like I am keeping their son from them, and thinking we spend all his free time with him when he gets back from work, eats, goes to the gym then comes home to bed!

He's a family man now, what do they expect? Don't go round as much, they don't deserve you.

Oldraver · 17/07/2018 17:27

Just stop going round...if they ask why you can say you are far too busy. trying not to be boring

AirForce0ne · 17/07/2018 17:28

They are idiots. If they make you feel unwelcome or just uncomfortable, you won't go back and see them as little as possible.

Don't let the nasty comments upset you, they are upsetting because they are mean, but as hard as they try, you are the mum, and you are your child favourite person in the world.

The only boring you have done so far is bringing her to these idiots, that's easily solved.

Butterymuffin · 17/07/2018 17:29

Yes, stop going round so much and tell them to contact him about meeting up instead.

Readyfortheschoolhols · 17/07/2018 17:35

6-7?? Thats a manic time of day to visit when you have dc imo!

Maelstrop · 17/07/2018 17:43

Just stop going round, simple.

IWannaSeeHowItEnds · 17/07/2018 17:49

Why is your h coming home, going to the gym and then going to bed? Should he not be helping with your dd?
Also I think you should tell him to have a word with his parents about being so bloody nasty. He could point out that they will see a great deal less of dd if they are unwelcomming to you.

Lollipopstick1 · 17/07/2018 18:15

The comments they make are snide so DH thinks I'm over reacting about it, 6am-6.30 but he gets home at 7, he does play a little bit with DD before he goes to the gym as she goes to sleep when he goes. On his days off he spends time with us we usually go somewhere and get back late, so he sees his parents maybe 2 3 times a week for 30 mins or so.
But surely that's not my fault I've never said he can't go see his parents, if I was like that I wouldn't go out of my way to go round most days so they can see DD!

I've got to be honest, if DC's partner deviated from the "DC feels they can drop in any time" way of doing things I would probably not like it and probably pass comment.

Lollipopstick1 · 17/07/2018 18:21

I've never said he can't drop in anytime- before his work situation changed he would go round most days it's just since now he can't possibly go round daily, as there aren't enough hours in the day!
