My in-laws are great! No trouble or beef. Everyone gets along for the most part. My fantastic MIL helps everyone by babysitting her grandchildren whenever needed to. It's actually a lot of work for her. Sometimes I feel like my husband's siblings take advantage, but I'm not physically there so I couldn't say for sure. I just know they get upset if MIL can't babysit. I'm moving into their city soon. We're all so excited. My SIL made a joke that my MIL is happy I'm moving there cause she's gonna have me help take over on babysitting (I don't work right now). I will eventually be starting a part time job, but we're in no rush. I'm totally happy to help babysitting. But I would not like it if they depended on me to do it almost every day. I'm busy with my own kids as well, and we love spending family time together. How do I set boundries when they start asking me to babysit almost every day? I really want to be there as an equal, and not the babysitter. Plus I don't want them all upset if I said no I can't babysit. via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/2XNTEKc
