I must be insane!
Why else would I let these people watch my kids? Oh yeah, it's because I'm desperate and poor.
So we have family watch our 2 cherub little boys throughout the week. Fortunately there is only a 3 1/2 hour span (3 days/week) that we need child care. Ethan's grandmother (she's 85) watches our kids up to 2x's/week and you know what? She is the most reliable. The ones I'm freaking out about are MIL and FIL. They are truly dumbasses! So we went to their house for dinner the other night and I overhear MIL telling a story about how she was watching this little girl and apparently the little "she-devil" got into some sherry and proceeded to get "drunk". Now this was about 25 years ago, but why was no one else (besides my husband) alarmed at this tale? She was suppose to be watching this child, no matter how precocious she was. This is the woman that fed my first son ice cream at the age of 5 months against my wishes. I was doubly upset that it was chocolate ice cream. A week later I noticed the markings of my son having enjoyed ice cream again and when I asked her response was "don't worry. I didn't give him chocolate...it was coffee ice cream" HELLO!! Did you really think this would make it better.
MIL has also asked me if I let Jacob play in the backyard by himself. He's 2. Hell NO! I don't even like him in his playroom for more than 10 minutes without me checking in on him. Am I over reacting? I don't think so and if you say yes I really don't give a rats ass because they're my kids.LOL. Oh I have pages upon pages to vent about this woman, but I think I'll stop for now because I'm working myself up into a tizzy.
