[quote=Anonymous]My ILs are huge Christmas people and they love sharing it with us and the kids. A few years ago we took the kids to visit my parents in a different state and the ILs found a way to ‘be there’ and join us. The last few christmases we spent with my ILs at our house and my parents did not join bc they live far away I think they just find it not that enjoyable to visit when they have to spend that much time w the ILs. My parents are now asking for one Christmas with us without the ILs… I’m not sure how to explain this to the ILs especially bc they will likely try and fly out to where we are with my parents and join unless expressly told not to. Dh is terrible at communicating and having difficult conversations with them - ultimately he will have to be the one to deal with this but I’d love some tips and thoughts before I even talk to him about my parents wishes..
