MIL got in DD’s bed
MIL got in DD’s bed .. naked.
Going to try to make this as short as possible. So JNMIL wanted to visit next month (April) so we agreed. She’s been visiting all of her kids since JYFIL passed away 2 years ago. JNMIL shows up at 5 in the damn morning today. Imagine our confusion when this lady pops up on our doorstep before sunrise.
DH and I are not morning people. I don’t mind getting up early sometimes. We waltz to the door, open it, and this half drunk 60 year old woman yells “Surprise” as if this were something to be happy about. “Uh MIL, are you drunk” I had to ask. She denies, saying alcohol spilled on her during the flight, yet the smell is on her breath.
“So where’s DD” she asked like we really want to start a conversation at 5 in the damn morning. We tell her she’s sleep. She wants to wake her up to say hi, like that makes the least bit of sense. We tell her flat out no, she tries to argue but waking a teenager up in the morning is not what i want to deal with. Finally she lets it go saying she’s going to go to the guest bedroom, shower and get a bit of rest. I’m totally okay with this, we carry her 2 suitcases to the guest room, and call it a night... or morning. Seriously though, who needs that much shit to spend a few days out of town.
I wish this is where i can say it ended.. but no. Maybe after 30 minutes of tossing and turning because I can never seem to go back to sleep once i’m up, DD screams. DH and I race to her room and what the fuck do we see? A naked MIL in DD’s bed. I ask her what the hell is she doing and she claims to have confused the guest bedroom with DD’s (even though they’re not even on the same floor).
DD is going out of her mind, I would too if I my naked grandmother had tried to lay beside me. She claims it was an accident which i still don’t buy. DD was not having any of it, neither was I. She wraps back in her towel and goes to get dressed. Lady wasn’t even here a day and has already started some shit.
EDIT: I didn’t think something like this was sexual assault. That is on me. I get it. But are the threats in my dm’s really necessary.
DD does have a lock on her door. In no way did she say she felt unsafe. I told DH she should leave but he is adamant she stays because of the weather and this lady can get him to do whatever he wants. I’ll take DD to the police station and file a report but chances are it won’t get anywhere because DH would most likely tell me i’m overreacting.
I’m also seeing a lot of replies asking if it were a man would i “let it go” like i did with her. I didn’t just let it fucking go. I tried to tell DH she should leave. She guilt tripped him into staying. What the fuck am i supposed to do when he hardly ever listens to me when it comes down to her?
EDIT2: I cant leave. DH won’t allow it. I did think about the safety of my daughter, still am. I’d leave if i had a choice. He’d be beyond angry if he found out I was trying to leave.
EDIT3: My DD is safe, she knows this. She’d tell me otherwise. I’m going to take her to the police station today. I will keep my child safe regardless. So to those of you questioning my parenting, don’t. There’s no way in hell i’d ever let anything happen to her. I didn’t put the woman out because DH let her stay. If i had a choice MIL would be out and gone within the hour.
