So starting off kinda long story short but def trying to get it short… My wife’s mom(mil) wasn’t around for several years. She went to prison and got out over wife’s 18th bday. She lived hours away and didn’t have much so the wife sent money all the time while we were together for years(5 or so)Finally with the birth of our kid, We moved her up locally let her live with us until we found her a place to live, then let her move to her own place and all. She got her disability and after I asked for just 5k(from the 20 to 30 she owed us) to pay us back and call it even she went and blew the rest on dumb shit. We moved her up several hours away to help watch our child while the wife worked(I work all the time on call so I have no schedule) due to neither one of them wanting our kid to be watched by strangers while we were gone the deal was we paid her 100 every 2 weeks and paid for her tv and cell bill. This was the agreement for a while. The. She needed this or that and well I need this too. So stuff increased. she then needed more for some bills. So we increased it to 150 every 2 weeks. But for a few years it’s been nothing but when am i getting my money (even if we don’t get paid for days even tho she knows this she need it then and no questions asked) you didn’t pay me enough(if money is short and I can’t I’ll next paycheck) I need this or I need that(even though we paid her this is other stuff she needs) I told my wife I’m tired of it and it’s costing us a ton more than what she agreed soon and on top of that it’s her fucking grandkid! We both have talked to friends who are appalled and can’t believe their parent would want money babysit their own grandchild. I personally came from a family whose grandparents were enthusiastic about taking care of me for days on end while my parents worked. But apparently her mom isn’t thrilled at all about any of it. My kid apparently told mil what is said so now she said im not watching them unless i want to and i dont want anything from either of you(even though my wife is on her car loan to help her out). Theres more but im fed up and to the point id rather pay more for a stranger to help us out than have her be the way she is. Mil has an other grandkid but her kid doesn’t want anything to do with her so with her other child she gets nothing in the way of visiting or anything. Now the wife is fed up as well but mil keeps posting stuff about heartbreak and being alone. Our closest friend ms feel that it’s bs and they have offered to watch our kid when we need for nothing(even tho ima give them money because I feel they deserve it even up to or more than what else paid for my MIL) AITA for wanting nothing to do with MIL and pushing my wife to avoid her mom after how she acts?
