in laws.

Anyone of you here that do not have a close relationship with in laws? No matter how hard you try to be nice to them, be positive with them, it will always turn out the other way round? They took my toddler ystd to sleepover at their place and they brought her out until late at night 1am which I have never done before bcs my toddler has a routine for her bed time etc so going oit until that late is never for her. My husband called them not once but alot of times and they didnt pick up. Their last seen on whatsapp was recently right after he called them. I know them so well that when they are out anywhere, going back home early is so not them even with small children. I wont say I hate but I never really liked them from the start even bfre we got married.

I seriously empathize with you. I do not have good relationship with my mil especially due to some misunderstanding in the past. And also, i do not agree with some of their living habits so i am very strict with my ground rules when they are present. And i told my husband before also. Some of which my husband do agree and he will tell his parents. Some he feels that i am too over and he will try to close one eye. But if i cannot accept it, i will be firm with my child in front of them to make them know i wun give in. Having such late night is a big NO for me. In fact, i wun even let my child sleepover at their place. One thg good is that they know my son's bedtime is sensitive. Cuz he will show tired sign when it is time. So they will not force and let us bring him back to sleep. If i were you, i will not let my kid sleepover any more. Or even be with them wo my presence if they do not know what is call respect the mother of the child. My mil is like that on certain areas so i nvr bother to talk to her.
