[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My parents played this card for thirty years. The only difference it made to us was that when we planned a vacation we purchased the travel insurance. We spent time with them when we could, but after about year 8 it started to get old. It's ultimately a form of manipulation and control.[/quote] OP - yes feeling manipulated and controlled was my first thought. Also recalled that my MIL said this all the time about HER parents (who lived well into their 80s!) every year when she wanted us to take off work to spend additional time with her parents. It was Granny’s last time to visit us/travel/celebrate for a full decade.[/quote]
