That is a bit harsh notanewuser. What option does she have if she has no access to transport to return to her own home in the morning. I am sure she would prefer to be in her own house rather than do this no matter how kind OH's family are. They are fortunate to have this backup.0 -
Can't your son go to a school within walking distance (or at least a bus ride away)? The current arrangement seems overly stressful/complicated for you and your partner's sister. How do you get home?0

Thank you sweetpea x If i'm honest, I prefer to be at my in-laws house with all my family than sat at home on my own with the baby, I use to be at home all the time when my other son was at nursery and I worked from home, it is rather lonely xxx My inlaws have a huge house, my partner is a twin and has 7 brothers and sisters so they have a big family with alot of love to give xxThe 1% Challenge #76 - Debt 1 = £620 - 1% = £6.20 - 4.3%

Honestly Wilma it's not x It's rather easy, my partners sister picks me, my 6 yo and my baby up in the morning with her little one, then we go to my sons school then carry on to his school, then we go to her parents x She also has a baby so they interact together. My partner finishes at 4 when not on overtime and he comes to the house and we have tea then we go home afterwards. His parents wouldn't have it any other way xxThe 1% Challenge #76 - Debt 1 = £620 - 1% = £6.20 - 4.3%
