My father in law is always asking for favors, like driving him places (even though he can drive and has a car) his excuse is that I know the area better ( I moved here after him), he is always asking me to go online to pay his bills and tickets or check plane ticket pricing( he has a computer at home) he has a 18 son at home that could help him but he says the son doesn't want to help. He asks me to call and speak to his bill collectors or his insurance company, his excuse is his English isn't good, even though since I have known him he has only spoken to me in english which is very understandable.ni know these are minor things but as a mother of three, with my hands already full, it upsets me. Also the fact that all my life I had to deal with this, my father was like this and a few exes of mine.. Is it dumb for me to get mad about this?

You have every right to get upset. Is he handicapped? no. Like you said, you are a mother and are to busy to deal with other problems.

[marmion]

no, that would piss me off too

no, that would piss me off too

No its not dumb for you being upset. What you have to do is avoid him, dont answer his calls and if you do, tell him your out busy doing stuff. After a while he should stop using you. If he has a son at home then he can help him. Your a mother of three and should not be bothered if anything he should be helping you. Good luck. I know you do it out of the sweetness of your heart but dont let anyone take advantage of you.

[galvin]

hell no that'd piss me off. your not his nanny. he can take care of himself and he should.

darling, your his daughter IN LAW, he'll always be annoying you somehow, at least that's what I hear. . . .but do you have a right to be upset YES!!!! he's your IN LAW not blood, why isn't your hubby taking care of these things, or his 18 yr old son, go talk to him and say listen you need to start helping out with your dad, I have my own kids to worry about. . . I mean why does he trust you with all these things, that he can't trust anyone else, maybe he just really REALLY likes you and enjoys your company or something

[vruyk]

no the guy is some lazy mf'er
just say you're busy with ur family and tell him to get independent


this pisses me off too

You asked but already know Dad-in-law is taking advantage of you it's time to tap the brakes on this guy a couple of times. With three kids you obvious have much to do next time just tell him sorry I'm busy ( once said don't tell him tomorrow maybe that is a big mistake). You know this dad-in law is spoiled but you shouldn't be his servant any longer you must also take some blame for this you been to easy going. I gather you want to please your dad-in-law perhaps others but you have 3 children and yourself who deserves to be pleased first. good luck.
