[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds like you plan a very rigid visit and then struggle when things don’t go exactly how you planned them and your way. Nothing in your post includes anything about what anyone else likes or enjoys but you. Does anyone else get any input ever?

There are many, many ways to be more flexible and find ways to enjoy a visit and incorporate other people’s opinions and likes and dislikes into it. You are creating the problem.

And you could have gone to the party and left for your parents at home to relax on their own. But no, you had decided they would go to this party and in your own words were prepared to have a massive meltdown if they didn’t do exactly what you said, when you said, how you said.

[b]Do you know how controlling it is to force visitors ahead of time to commit to an exact schedule and what foods they will eat and where they will go and what they will do if they want to visit? [/b]Your need to control every little thing and to have everything your way is the issue here.

This.  Your mom probably doesn't love it either but she's just going along with it to keep the peace.  [/quote]
