Re: how to stop your in-laws relatives from borrowing??
Also, if the kid’s mother does nothing…then what do YOU do when he’s jumping on the sofa and getting into things? Do you also stay quiet?
Figure out a way to give an indirect hint. I dunno maybe…casually (and make it sound super casual) tell her how you invited a friend over who has a couple of kids…and you had such a good time…her kids were so adorable…and that you were worried about how to entertain/occupy the kids…but they did great and were so well-behaved and didn’t go tearing through the home and get into things as you had feared…and that it turned out great. I dunno…make something up but word in a breezy way that also gets your SIL thinking. Or invite some other kids from your in-laws (well-behaved kids) and praise their manners in front of everyone (including the SIL with naughty kid)..and maybe that might work.
^ hmm
