[quote=Anonymous]As far as grandparent reaction goes, that was a really mild one, and I would not even call it passive aggressive. It's pretty direct and straight forward. I think you just need to have thicker skin. It's factual that you spend a lot more time with your ILs and are closer to them. Your dad's reaction is completely natural, and he's letting you know they want more time with the kids. I also would cut back on photo sharing online. I do this in my friend group: if we go on vacation with a sub set of friends, I don't share pics to the whole group where some friends might see them and get hurt. Hurt feelings among a group of friends can be illogical yet very natural. It's just basic curtesy to ppl in your social circle not to showcase what they're missing out on. You can do that with your parents in mind too.[/quote]
