As a single working mother, I remember feeling the same way but since remarrying and becoming a stay-at-home mom, I find myself needing free time every now and then. I don't think either of our choices are wrong, just what we need in our specific circumstances. Enjoy all that time with Daniel.

My mom loves us, but was always really too happy for us to go to uncles, grandparents etc. <br /><br />It might make a difference if you just say that its a core value to you and that you really treasure your time with him. Perhaps then they would be more understanding. <br /><br />Also, why don't they know junk food & late bed time is a no-no? I spoiled my nephews, but respected my sister's boundaries.
