Getting Along With Your In-Laws
Quote From: mmcturk When my children were young my Mother-in-law who lived 300 miles away used to take them for weeks at a time in the Summer. It was wonderful and all my work colleagues who had to juggle child care around their time at work, were very jealous. It gave my husband and I time on our own and the girls loved their time at Grannies. She also would take them on holiday to the beach. They have lots of lovely memories and we enjoyed the respite.
If you and hubby are having a difficult time I would suggest you grab this opportunity with both hands, I maybe wrong but if she wants to look after the kids let her, she could be doing it to give you a break and even if that isn't the reason just think how nice it would be to re-build your relationship with hubby. my kids have summer programs to attend and she only wants the grandkids that are hers, so we would still have teenagers here.
