[quote=Anonymous]You can’t ask adults to eat with you if they don’t want to. A gift should be for their enjoyment, not for yours. Just give them a gift card for a restaurant or a show if you don’t want to do shopping. I think gifts from the children can be picked by the children (with guidance to think about what the recipient would like) and they can explain to Pop Pop or Auntie Sue why they chose the gift they did. You and DH can start laying hints to the parents when your own birthdays are rolling around - tell your ILS that your DH would love to go to a ball game with his dad or DH can say that you’d love to have MIL join you and the kids at the butterfly garden as a gift.[/quote]
