[quote=Anonymous]You aren't wrong. All of your reasons and logical and valid. I would do your best to ignore them. Invite them to things even if you know they will decline. Some people choose to be unhappy no matter the circumstance. I bet if you starting flying out to see them more they would find something new to complain about. Every time they make that remark have a response (or a few responses) ready that you can just repeat. Just a simple acknowledgment + a suggestion. If you have to list all of your reasons why each time it is too much. "We miss spending time with you too. We were planning to host Thanksgiving at our house this year, would you be able to join us?" "We would love to see you more. Susie has her school play this spring, would you like to visit then?" "It would be so nice if we lived closer. Maybe on your next visit we can plan a weekend near the beach." [/quote]
