Should Not Have Opened!

Last evening, while I was in the room with Sherry, I heard the door bell rang. But knowing MIL will be outside so I chose to ignore it.

While I was still in the toilet with Sherry, I heard a man’s voice talking to MIL. So out of curiosity, I went out to have a peep. It was a salesman promoting about the door lock. To my surprised, she opened the gate for him to enter into my house. It was so dangerous!

So I told her after he had left that she shouldn’t have opened the gate to let such people to come in, what is he has other motive? Then her reply makes me even angrier. She said that she will not have opened the gate for him if she is alone in the house. But what can I do, even if I’m at home? Sherry is in my arms, and what if that man just rushed into the living room and got hold of the both of us, what can MIL do? I’ve told her many times to beware of these strangers. They may have all kinds of reasons to make you open the door for them. And she also mentioned that that man told her that HDB had told him to come and inspect all the locks in our area but if he is really from the HDB, we should have received a letter and we will definitely tell her about it. I’M REALLY SO ANGRY WITH HER!!

This morning, I told hubby about this and he said that MIL did mention all these to him and she also mentioned that she did not know why she opened the door. So I took the opportunity to tell him that please reminds MIL not to open the gate to strangers especially in the day. HOPEFULLY SHE LISTENS AND WILL NOT LET THIS REPEAT ITSELF AGAIN!
