I am a stay-at-home mother with 11-mo. old girl. My in-laws didn't visit us ONCE until we had a baby. Since then they started coming without invitation every 2 months. Of course, they never help and only mess around. They usually call my husband on the day they come and tell him they are coming and wouldn't take NO for an answer. They are very persistent. The entertainment is falling on me as my husband works late. I am really sick and tired of it, because they are old selfish misers that really take no consideration of others. My husband won't deal with it and we talked, discussed, argued a lot about that without any results. Why should I cook for them and run around like a maid while they won't even play with the baby? I want to mention that they never even bring any gifts for the baby, and I think they really don't care about me or her, because when they come, they just want to relax and enjoy my service. I feel they have nothing else to do.
I realize every two months is not so bad, but what bugs me is they warn me only a couple of hours before they show up, and I have a hard time getting ready for them. Couldn't they just be nicer and tell us a week in advance so we adjust our plans? Also, they stay for 4-5 days in a row, and we really feel relieved when they are finally gone. These people don't care about anything but their own butts, that's why it is so hard for me to be around them. Sadly, my husband doesn't love them very much because of their attitude. We have nothing to talk about when they are here, both parties bored to death. I guess I just wanted your support. Thank you.
