At my wits end!!!

ladybugg82 · June 2010

Ever ytime we go over to the IL's they think that it is perfectly okay to let my 6 year old SIL carry Austin around. Myself and DH have told them numerous times to please not allow to her to pick Austin up and carry him around. She is very clumsy and trips over her own feet all the time. I still think she is to young to pick him up and walk around with him.

So this weekend we dropped Austin off for a few hours while DH and I ran some errands. Before we left DH told MIL and SIL not to let her SIL pick up Austin and carry him around. They both said ok.

We come back a few hours later and the first thing we see when we walk in the door is SIL carrying Austin around. When DH said something to her about it, she said that MIL told her she could carry him just not in front of us!!! Are you freaking kidding me?!?!?!

Ugh, vent over.

ARE YOU FOR REAL?! That's AWFUL! Why can't people just respect a parent's wishes. It's obviously for the best! Oh and way to teach a 6 year old to LIE.

Sorry!

THIS! That is so irritating. Wow. And that would be the last time they would be watching him for a long time if that were me. I think they need to learn a lesson that you do not go against the parents wishes like that. I would be irate.

Yay, I dont think he will be over there any more anytime soon. As we were walking out the door yesterday DH mentioned that he might be coming over next weekend to change the brakes on my car. MIL got all giddy and told Austin, "Make sure that Daddy brings you and Mommy can stay home!"

This is out of control. I would be beyond ticked off

Ms.Beachbum08 · June 2010

I'm over here thinking. What if she would have fallen with him? How would they have covered that up?

Exactly!!!

MrsAzull · June 2010

this is why i hate certain people!

Wendells · June 2010

yeah, if that were me they wouldn't be watching him probably EVER again. so out of control!

Mrs.S_0909 · June 2010

I agree, he wouldn't be going over there anytime in the near future. Probably not until he could walk on his own and not want to be picked up... I can't believe that some of the MILs on this board act this way.

ash.flea · June 2010

I'm pretty sure I wouldn't leave her alone with my kid anymore. If she doesn't respect you or your DH enough to follow this simple request, what else is she doing behind your backs with him?

I agree with all of the above!!

Plus, if they teach they 6yr old to lie, who is to say they won't encourage Austin to do the same later?

That would definitely be the last unsupervised visit EVER for my child and I'd be quite miffed about the last comment.
