While visiting a new mom in her home, she was expressing her frustration
from having her in-laws staying with her for 1 month to see their new
grandson.  She explained how they woke the baby up, because they want to
hold him and she's so tired.  How they sit and watch while she vacuumns and
cooks for them.  How they walk in the park while she shops for groceries,
well, you get the picture.

I was doing what I could to be supportive and encouraging, offering
possible ideas on how to cope, when we realized that the baby monitor was
on!

They heard the entire conversation from the living room.

Some good may actually come from this, and hopefully her relationship with
her in-laws won't be damaged, but... from now on, I'll check this out
before we get started!
