Sooo up until June of this year my boyfriend, daughter, and I lived with my boyfriends mother. We lived with her my whole first pregnancy until my first daughter was two. We moved about 30 mins away from where we were living, and his mom moved too... to a house about 5 mins down the road... Well she asks to come over or have my daughter come to her house about every 3 days or so on average. At first it was kinda nice because I needed some extra help since we had our second daughter in July. Now I feel like I’m in a good routine, and don’t really need the help... I’m a person who really loves personal space, and I don’t know how to nicely tell her I don’t want her coming over/my daughter going over there that often. I usually say yes because I feel bad saying no. She is a very nice lady, and I know she is lonely because she lives alone, but I don’t want to feel like I have to yes all the time just because I feel bad for her. Ugh. I don’t know what to do.

I agree, talk to her. I'll bet she's lonely... I actually live with my parents and the times I've taken my daughter places by myself, my mom (while she appreciates the quiet time to clean and things) misses her A LOT.... Says that she's better company than my father, who does speak more than 2 words all day long...

My Mom would have gone crazy already if not for my daughter.... 😃

Just talk to her. Y’all lived with her for 2 year. She probably just misses having you guys and your daughter around

It’s always good to set boundaries in the beginning but you should definitely ask your boyfriend to talk to her or both of you. Just to establish personal space.

Maybe you can have a set schedule with her like “hey______, you can have (your daughter) on Wednesday and Saturdays. I really want to have her on the other days to do whatever. I mean I wouldn’t completely take away her time because she’s lonely and that’s grandma. My dad who will be a grandad I already know it’s going to be a joy ride.

We were hoping moving a little further out would give us more personal space, but then she moved too... really close to us. It’s so frustrating. I love my space too. That’s why we moved out in the country with about two neighbors.😂

This is petty... But my MIL keeps saying she just "knows" my daughter will come on the 7th. I really hope she doesn't just because I don't need her taking credit for the rest of our lives. It's annoying enough that she is always saying she knew she was a girl before we found out, but didn't want to say anything because "it would ruin the surprise." This is my pregnancy. This is my daughter. We already don't get along, and this is making it a lot worse.

I need some opinions ladies. So we told our daughter that we weren’t getting a Christmas tree this year because ever since my MIL moved in we don’t go in the living room we literally stay in our rooms the whole time we are home. We just didn’t want her to get super excited about it and not actually get to enjoy it. Well last Sunday she told my daughter that she wants to buy her a tree and for her all excited after she knew we weren’t getting one. She got the tree and told my daughter that she gets to decorate it. But instead she had her friend come up and decorate it while we were gone. My daughters heart is soo broken. I feel so bad. How should I approach it? Should I just let it go?

I literally want to kill my friends daughter. We live together And her daughter destroys EVERYTHING and they don't do anything about it. I would kill my daughter if she did that kind of stuff !!!! It's a school night , and I heard her awake. So I get up to pee and check on her ... This child got into my sephora and MAC makeup and DESTROYED it all ! Every ounce of it is all over the walls , the floors , the shower curtain , mirror .... EVERY WHERE !! That stuff is not freaking cheap. She's 7 years old... So she KNOWS BETTER!!!!!!!

is it wrong to be frustrated that my daughter acts like she can't do certain things with out my help. she plays dumb a lot and I wish I could be like no girl show what you know. she acts like she can't trace or match shapes so shes ask for "mommy finger" to help her so I barely hold her hand and she magically can do it but if I dont hold her hand she just scribbles and acts like she doesnt know the pic is how she traces when I'm "helping her" otherwise it'll just be scribbles all over the page
