[quote=Anonymous]We live in DC and both DH’s dad and my dad live out west (in opposite directions nowhere near each other) with our respective step-mothers. Neither has ever been great about visiting us but they’re both now in early 80s. We have three teens (one in college) and busy schedules. We’ve been traveling to seen them as a family every year, even though they’ve never visited us with any such frequency. We’re considering not doing it this year. The time, the money, the hassle. Even the kids don’t want to go. We can’t do our own family vacation plus these two visits. Frankly, we’re just tired of it. But we know they won’t be around forever. One (a narcissist) will lay on a serious guilt trip. Thoughts? For me, I don’t have a relationship where I want to do the trip on my own. Does everyone visit parents at least once per year?[/quote]
