[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here, I knew I would get charged with neglect. But I spend about half my vacation time with them (and the other half with in laws...) I have repeatedly invited them to visit me and my kids--they do travel to other places--and they don't come. We don't have a real touchy-feely type family. I'll send them an email with photos of the kids, etc and won't hear back for like two weeks. I simply don't live near them so how can I spend more time with them? This doesn't seem like the kind of conversation that can be had by phone. And I can't be as blunt as the PP...[/quote] It sounds like you just don't have the kind of relationship where you can expect this kind of conversation to have any effect. Conversations are overrated anyways. If they wanted to deal with this issue, they would have. Nagging them is not going to change anything.[/quote]
