SD14's visitation rider

SeeYouNever's picture

The balls on these people I swear. 

Since my lovely sil has been taking over SD 14's visitation time she fancies herself to be an expert on the care feeding and entertainment of SD14.

SD is thinking about allowing us to see her sometime this summer. Negotiations are still ongoing. DH is in a three-way negotiation with sil and SD to try to get SD for some of his time over the summer. For some reason sil and SD are now a package deal, my DH might as well have a teenage daughter and a grown daughter that he has to cater to. And boy does he have to cater to them, you would think we were hosting Mariah Carey and have to outfit her dressing room with all her ridiculous excessive demands. 

SD is demanding that we take her to the beach, an amusement park, a weekend away at a hotel, she also wants to go to a spa while she's here. She has also asked for soda, Oreos, chocolate chip eggos, taco bell and chili's. 

Sil has also been chiming in separately with demands for herself and for SD. She wants them to go get manicures and pedicures, go to fancy brunch, movies... Sil has also asked for us to provide her with prosecco and orange juice because she "taught SD how to make mimosas." Sil also says that we need to get a inflatable mattress so that the two of them can sleep together in the living room and watch scary movies together.

Thankfully my DH has shut this down and says that he will be planning the two weeks that she's here. As soon as he said that SD has walked it back and said she only wants to come for maybe a week. 

Sil is planning on taking vacation time to come up to our house and have us entertain her and SD. My husband absolutely resents his sister when she starts expecting us to entertain her like this. I think the two weeks of visitation is going to go down to maybe a weekend by the time the negotiations are done!

I'd love a fancy vacation complete with mimosas too!  I'll even clean up after myself!

Seriously!  WTF?  I hope your DH does a kiddie inflatable pool and off brand sodas and snacks while your SD is there.  I also hope he tells SiL to Get lost!

I'd be happy to have you if you clean up after yourself! I have a mimosa and a kiddie pool we can put our feet in.

Come to think of it I could probably get this whole thing shut down if I snitch to be in that sil gives SD alcohol. She doesn't dare do it in our presence but I know that those times that she has SD on her own she is definitely letting her have a mimosa of her own.

They can always cancel if plans arent up to their expectations.  Too bad, so sad.  Lol.

I swear I would tell SIL to go have her own children. Back off and send her now.

Unlikely, she likes being the "cool aunt" and is way too selfish to have kids, let alone be in a relationship. She has been single since I met her ~7 years ago.

Really? 

Mariah SIL Carey can outfit her own vacation on her dime. Some flipping nerve she has. Sometimes I think I read it all then this happens.

SIL expects all this because she thinks she is doing DH a favor by picking up SD for him.

It would be hilarious for your DH to promise the earth and once they arrive deliver nothing.  I realise it would be hell to live through but you'd have some great stories.  *diablo*

Yes, and when they throw their hissy fits, he could innocently tell them, "Well, what you asked for was so way out there and ridiculous that I assumed it was a prank and that you were only joking ..."

This is gross! I hope your DH does absolutely nothing. If he does feel like catering he can come through with the junk food so they can rot out their teeth and get as big as a house!

SMH. I would be disgusted if my DH even considered negotiating like this. I hope he tells the self absorbed B!^@#es to step off.

Yep - that would be a hard no - who the hell do these entitled shits think they are? So happy your DH shut that down.
