The inlaws have once again invited themselves to stay with us. No matter how much I try to get myself to relax, I can't until they leave. They comment on every aspect of my parenting, are cold to me, too full on with our daughter and I have to repeat myself with boundaries. How do you guys cope? We used to see them ...

Anyone a stay at home mom here? I’m at home with my 4 year old and 3 year old + 3 cats. My husband doesn’t think he should have to do any cleaning, cooking or grocery shopping.

Hi moms, My fiancé and I have been together for almost 4 years. He has a bio daughter (9) and I have a bio daughter (11).
