[quote=Anonymous]My ILs expect us to stay up late (11 p.m. or so) to greet them at the door, *then stay up and chat,* on the days that they CHOOSE to arrive very late on visits. They could leave the house whenever they want, and arrive much earlier (only a 4-hour drive), but for various factors and "traffic matricies," they choose to leave after dinner time and arrive late. My husband and I leave the porch light on, key under the mat, and lights on in the living room and down the hall and in the guest bedroom. But we no longer stay up. We make sure they know we have our cell phones on and at our bedside in case they truly need help. But they think we are terribly rude "not to greet our guests." That's just not how it's "done."[/quote]
