She ignores them and when I put them together, she simply walks off. The father isn't too bad. He does stick around for movie nights and dinners unlike his wife who would run off soon after everyone's settle round the TV or dinner area.
There are days that I run for the hills as soon as the kids latch onto my husband.
Doesn't mean I don't love them, but a little me time stolen when I can get it is priceless.
Seriously though, in one of my families I have a father who wants kids less than the "definitely" mother. I have noticed that if I drop him onto her, they are much less likely to argue about having kids. If I drop her, they will argue at least half a dozen times. Try making sure you are starting the action with the one that wants the kids the least and see if it helps a little.
