If they are on the same page, her DH should have no problem handling this. No need to add in law issues to an already troubled marriage.

OP here - thanks for the suggestions. Despite the tangents on treating in-laws like parents, there were some really thoughtful posts, and I appreciate them. DH will be the one telling them, but he was getting stressed about it and I wanted to help with some ideas of how to handle the conversation with his parents. Actually, he wants them to visit less than I do; he has a loving but pretty superficial relationship with his parents, and wants to keep it that way.

Thanks again for the useful ideas.

Can you do a shortened visit? I get that coming from 3,000 miles is a long way, but 7 days is a long time for anyone no matter the distance. I wonder if you suggest to shorten the trip they would just not come?
