[quote=Anonymous]If they are local stop the formal scheduling of one day each month for each family. My parents and IL’s each live within five minutes of us and we tend to just do things on the fly and rarely with both sets at the same time unless it is a child’s birthday. My parents and my IL’s are very different in terms of how they interact with us and our kids and we just go with the flow. They probably have no idea how much time the other parents spend with us as they never ask. My parents are always driving my kids around and I often drop in at their place for some relief but never at my IL’s because there place is small and formal and my parents place is big and full of toys. You need to relax! [/quote]
