"I know you like to jump and say yes to everything your daughter asks so she can do this and that but how long do you think she'll be gone. It can't be all afternoon because we gotta work. I assume your lunch break is at 1 but how will this work once you/we are back at work and she starts crying or needs a diaper change?"
Last I checked "we" aren't keeping her, I am. She's 3 weeks old not 3 years old running around getting into things. Now my wife's sons, my step-sons, can come multiple times during the day interrupting her and it's not an issue. But when my daughter comes by then she's now all of a sudden worried about "our" jobs.
Do I really need her permission to watch my granddaughter for an hour?
@ Pegatha, The wife wasn't having a bad day. She was sitting at her desk working. I love how every time I ask a question most p[people seem to think I'm wrong because she's having a bad day. If I had that many bad days I'd find another less stressful job. If one of her sons comes by in the middle of the day she'll stop working and talk with them but me watching my granddaughter on my lunch break is a problem.
@Seedy, Ditched, really? That's a bit extreme don't you think? She's going to get her nails done and doesn't want the baby in the shop with all the fumes.
