@mind_yourboundaries: What do you do when your MIL won’t respect your parenting rules, and your husband keeps avoiding the conflict? Here’s the boundary script I’d use. PSA: My opinion and education.

This advice assumes that OP's husband is on board and will back up the parenting plan. If he says that OP is too controlling and should let his Mom do what she wants, then he still doesn't have to deal with it. She then has to cut her MIL out on her own, and possibly separate from her husband. In that case, MIL will be taking care of her children on the father's time, but will have to deal with the consequences of the sugar and no naps herself.

Rules for your baby with your grandkids that in itself sounds pretty messed up. You’re not letting your children have grandparents grandparents don’t have rules.

My MIL kept breaking our rules for our daughter too. While babysitting she broke my trust. My husband did not want to deal with it. Eventually he did, he told her that she wouldn’t be babysitting for a while, we would still have visits, but babysitting was out of the question. She was offended and pulled back. A few weeks later she reached out and wanted to talk to my husband. During this she doubled down, called us the problem, and told my husband she wished she had lied to us about what happened while babysitting. My husband came home and told me SOME parts of their conversation. He wanted me to move on and said that if I didn’t things were just going to get worse. I tried to just let it go but something felt off. I had to talk to her. I made plans for us to go to his parents house so we could talk, his mom refused but we still had a regular visit. A few weeks later she invited herself over our house for dinner. My husband told her that was fine but if she was going to come over we were going to have a conversation. She didn’t like that and hung up on my husband. Well, she did come to dinner and I knew she wasn’t going to bring up the conversation, so I did. It did not go well. It was 30 minutes of her yelling at me, calling me names, telling me I needed professional help, and her playing the victim. I stayed calm the whole time but once she started being really rude I told her I was done with the conversation and that we could come back to it when we were both ready. After that I just shut up. She then turned to my husband, started calling him names, yelling at him for not sticking up for her, called him a coward with his tail between his legs, all the things a parent shouldn’t say to their child. Then she stormed out of our house. Unknown to us at the time when she left she called everyone in the family to tell them her version of what happened. She is proud of this too. The holidays that year were awkward. We went NC on Christmas. My husband still has some contact with them and he’s been trying to reopen contact but they keep ambushing him or shutting the door in his face, then they tell the family that we haven’t done anything to try to break the NC.

She has a husband problem…. Husband either needs to manage boundaries or that she never gets to see the child unsupervised
