[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a MIL that wants us to vacation with her and SIL every year (both are single). Our kids are the only grandkids. Everyone is well off but we have more money than the in laws. 
I don’t mind an occasional vacation with them but they expect it every year and we end up footing 85% of the costs. It’s gotten to be too much and I don’t want to take every European vacation with my in laws. MIL was offended when I told her I wanted time alone with my husband and kids. I know the trips mean a lot to her but it’s not our responsibility to have to provide them. We have lots of quality time together. We don’t do the same trips with my parents and I told her I was uncomfortable with the perception my parents had of us taking all of these fancy trips with her and not them.

Vacations with parents or in-laws are lovely it don’t expect it every year and realize the dynamics are more complicated than you think.

100% agree and I have a similar situation. However — is OP talking about taking vacations with in-laws/parents?? Now I’m confused about the OP’s post lol. [/quote]
