[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Husband's family gets birthdays, mother's/father's day, Easter, Thanksgiving and every other Christmas. Is it unreasonable to not have to celebrate with them every other year? [/quote] No, not unreasonable at all.[/quote] It's not unreasonable at all, unless Husband's family is unreasonable. Sounds like they are. And at 4 hours, that's not a terrible weekend trip - not a fun relaxing weekend trip, but it's doable. The only way out of it is for husband to flat out say, we're not coming this year, can't swing it, so sorry, we'll put our presents to you in the mail. ANd then take the shitstorm that comes - once you get through it once it'll be easier. (and, I agree with a PP - it IS unreasonable for wife's family to be upset husband's closer family gets more holidays. It is what it is.) [/quote]
