I have not posted here in a while, but some back story is my in laws had issues with my birth plan and wanted time with lo before letting people into the room, stuff like that. Then a nasty fight, name calling and disrespect from them.
We put it aside and I am not holding a grudge, we see them once a month because we think that's fare. Now the Xmas drama.. We had plans with them for Xmas eve, but my husband works that day so we wouldn't get to them till late and our son is only 8 months old so he would be crabby. I texted mil to ask if she would rather do the weekend before Xmas so we had more time together. Me being the nice one and offering. She then asked what we were doing on Xmas day and I told her we were staying at home and enjoying our first Christmas as a family, not too unreasonable right? She never responded, then called my husband crying saying she wanted to see us on Christmas and the weekend before wasn't good enough. Before he got a chance to tell me this I had texted her asking her to let me know which day she chooses. She then texts me saying she feels like she is loosing her son, and how she wants to see us Xmas and we are selfish. She says her grandson is her "life" and she's so upset and now we are most likely not even seeing them at all because she isn't getting what she wants. Thank god my husband is on my side. And quite frankly I don't care one bit if we don't see them!
