My daughter is 2 years old. I am an only child while my husband has 6 sisters and 2 brothers and a very imposing mother. Since I gave birth my sister-in-law, who has no children, has been volunteering and imposing herself to babysit my daughter at all times. She actually works in my daughter's daycare and my daughter got very close to her. She wants to pick her up from daycare everyday, which my husband doesn't mind because like this he can stay later at work. My sister in-law's behavior bothers me because she doesn't take into consideration my feelings. Although I have told her how I feel on many occasions she doesn't do anything to fix the problems. She thinks she is helping me out. I am a working mother and every minute that I have that I can spend with my daughter is precious for me and I don't want someone else benefitting of my time. My husband thinks I have a psychological problem. Do I? Is my behavior abnormal? What can I do to make my husband and in-laws understand?
