[quote=Anonymous]When she asks you, I would have a neutral response in mind. Something like "Oh wow, that would be so fun! Unfortunately that wont work this summer, but I'd love to see you guys. I've been thinking of planning a trip back, it's been so long! Is that old XYZ shop still open down the block?" Basically say no, dont give an excuse as she will find a way around it, and change the subject. If she brings it up again, you just rinse and repeat. "But why wont it work? He wont be any trouble" "I'm sure thats true, but we really cannot host your son for 3 months this summer. Lets change the topic, what have you been up to? Hows DH's work?" [/quote]
