Would it bother you

Would it bother you if your MIL joined a mom's group to take your LO to? Assume your MIL generally has major boundary issues and is way, way too involved in your life.

Yes. Particularly if MIL is the daycare provider, too. Sounds like you need to establish a few boundaries.

Regina+Phalange · January 2012

Agree. Thanks for your feedback. She is not our main daycare provider, but she does watch him on Fridays. I just wasn't sure if it bothers me because I don't like her, or if it really was crossing a line. You know how once you don't like someone, every little thing they do bothers you. Oh, and she never mentioned it to me. She has a very unique name and I found her profile on a mom's group I was looking to join.

Yep, I'd stop that asap, unless it was a grandma's group.

ETA: I have the same feelings about my xMIL.

Regina+Phalange · January 2012

Nope, a working mom's group.

Wowzers! That's super weird. I would also have a problem with it. And especially because she never told you!

Regina+Phalange · January 2012

It is so weird. Well, at least H is on the same page as me. I C&P'ed the profile I found to him and he wrote back: Oh shitt, that is definitely my Mom. That's fuuucked up. (edited to get around nest censors) Ugh.

Yeah, I would have a problem with that. I would speak with your H and get that ended ASAP.

IDK, I guess I am the lone man out, I don't see what the big deal is. I guess if she wanted to get out, let your LO get some kid interaction and if it's in a safe environment I don't think it would bother me. Although it might bother some of the other moms having to chit chat with someone who is twice their age, LOL.

However, I do think it's super weird that she did this without your knowledge. I mean, why be so shady?

I kinda agree with this. She is resourceful. LOL.

I agree with Kathy. I don't see it as a big deal. I'm guessing a Grandma group is hard to find?
