to think visiting family shouldn't spend 2 hours sitting reading the newspaper?

[deaconblue]

In laws were here for the weekend. They only see our dc's every 2-3 months and apparently were really looking forward to seeing them. It really annoyed me when they spent 2 hours yesterday afternoon sitting reading the paper from cover to cover while the children tried to get their attention. It's rude to sit and read the paper at someone else's house isn't it or am IBU?

If the gps come over and sit on their backsides reading while you rush around after the kids, then I would stop inviting them over for so long.

If they think it's fine to sit abOUT doing sweet fanny adams, then I'd rather not have them cowping about under my feet while I am busy and FED UP. Let them read the paper in their own house.

So. YANBU.
