Mil requested to stay with us. She love our baby very much and she love his son also. She said she can help us taking care baby. Help us doing some house chores and cook meal for us. I really appreciated but I found that my role has been taken as she love both of them too much. My husband will take her mom as first place too as she really love him so much since young. Should I reject?? As I foresee it may have family issue in future. How should i reject? what should i do so that won't be the bad person to make the decision and won't spoilt the relation between my hubby and mil?

Sometimes when u are in a rush she might be able to pick your child up. Like chinese say 家有一老 如有一宝. Having an elderly at home is like having a treasure. I also find kids who socialise more with elderly more polite and patient(maybe because of the constant nagging).
