You should pay of course. You shouldn’t even be asking about it. Shame on you!

Why weren’t your kids invited? If my kids can’t come then I’m not going 
Honestly, if your MIL expressed that she needs help then she needs help. If she said she couldn’t handle it then you would have no choice but to pay for a babysitter. I’m lucky enough to have a mother in law that watches my children if we need her to and what I do is I give them baths before we leave so she doesn’t have to and as far as dinner I either cook them food before we leave or I order out and pay for it so that she doesn’t have to worry about it and she can just serve them dinner and also have something to eat herself. Whatever makes her life easier because she is doing us th favor. Maybe you could try doing the same and if not then i would say you are responsible for paying for the babysitter to help her. Just be thankful that you have a MIL that is willing to babysit because some MIL’S don’t.
You should definitely pay. There your kids. Be grateful that your mil is willing to do the favor overnight.
You… You’re lucky to even have a mil to help. We don’t have anyone here to help us. I would be glad to pay both if it was me.
I hope your MIL reads this idiotic post and tells you to stick it. She should never babysit for you again. You pay the babysitter and you owe her money too. Smdh
Isn’t it your idea to get her help? Than you pay for it
You should pay. You’re incredibly lucky. Yes it’s an extra cost but it will be worth it because you get alone time. 
also just because grandma babysits doesn’t mean it should always be for free. Help her out every once in awhile. Good karma will come back to you.
Why is this even a question?

Ohh for the LOVE of god !! Your the one that asked her she wanted help in the first place then you went and got it for her so stop being a piece of shit and pay the baby sitter you useless cunt
Not everyone can cope at the same level … just saying …
You are the parent, the kids are your financial responsibility.
You should pay your babysitter and be glad your mil is willing to cover what she can and you don’t have to pay a sitter for the entire time

Sounds like too much of a hassle period. I just wouldn’t go to the wedding. I also have never had my mom or my MIL not be able to take care of my 2 kids and need help. That’s just weird to me. To each their own though. 
Wow! For real? They’re your children…your responsibility to pay the sitter! Be grateful MIL is keeping them!

You should pay for the sitter. That is not the responsibility of your mother in law. Taking care of kids are so hard to do most specially for the elderly. Have some consideration with your mother in law. If you don’t want to pay for the sitter then ask your mother to do the job.
Your kids your responsibility!

I don’t get it?
Basically it seems like you’re thinking your MIL should pay someone to help take care of YOUR kids while you choose to go to a wedding? 
That doesn’t even make sense.
She’s offered to take care of them for some of the weekend, so you pay for the help for the time she can’t. That’s pretty fair.

You, your the one needing the sitter. Shouldn’t be a question really. She was willing to help but also informed you that she needed additional help for proper care. To compare your mother’s help to you MIL isn’t fair.

You should be paying for the sitter. You’ve asked her to have your kids overnight. You’ve not said how many children or their ages. But your mum in law may feel she can’t cope without having extra help. She may not see them often or may be older who knows!!! My ex mother in law never had my kids and they were extremely well behaved when with family. If your mum has them more she ll be more familiar with their routine etc.
She’s already helping but shouldn’t be out of pocket . She might not be able to afford that extra cost. Just because she’s family doesn’t give you the right to take advantage.
If you’re not happy with the arrangement then ask someone else and pay them or don’t go to the wedding.
I’m a grandparent and have my grandchildren as often as I can I don’t expect anything for this and i looked after the two oldest for free when my daughter worked. But my daughter now always sends food etc to help out when I have them in the summer. I’m on a low income so I couldn’t afford to do it all but would if I could .
Husband and wife = a unit. So guess what you BOTH pay for it from your bank account. Like what’s with this “who pays what” crap 
They are YOUR children. Not your MIL. So You two pay for it

Is this really a question? They are your kids, and your MIL is doing you a favor. She could have said “no” all together, which would leave you with two options: 1) you have to pay someone for the entire time, 2) you don’t go. Sounds you have a pretty awesome MIL considering she is trying to compromise with you. What type of person thinks this way?

You’re shitty af. YOU pay the sitter. Not her. If my mil asked for help, I’d help her in any way possible.
I’m not going to be rude like other people. But honestly you should. Because shes not being paid to watch them. Therefore you should pay for the extra help if she needs it.

My mom is ok with dealing with my 3 lids fine with her hubby, my dad not so much. Esp over night. I think its unfair to compare yours to your mil. At a certain age its hard to deal with young kids. If you want the night out, suck it up and pay for a sitter for your own kids. Would you rather not get any help and also not to the wedding? Geesh
If she wasn’t helping u would have to pay someone even more, ur kids u pay

I say grandma. If shes been able to watch them no problem for longer then she should be fine now. If she feels she needs help now when she hasnt before, the cost is on her imo

I always told my kids there’s no such thing as stupid question, well I was wrong, woman you pay the babysitter and your mother in law, 
My mom would never ask me to have someone come help her, and shed never ask me to pay her either. If she did ask, i wouldn’t hesitate BUT, it really depends on her health, and age. So there’s alot of factors not mentioned. If it were my grandkids it would never be a question unless i was unable to care for them
Tbh if that were the situation id have my kids watched at my home where they were comfy, by the paid sitter.
Not even going to read the rest of that. Got to the part where you’re getting her assistance. Don’t be ridiculous! Your kids. You pay. Period.
Lol have kids and want other ppl to be responsible for them … really… It your kid your responsibility
