[quote=Anonymous]My inlaws seem to think there is no such thing as sending too many pictures. They also seem to be under the impression that every single picture we take we should be sharing with them. I am generally a very private person and I don't post pictures online and am just generally private. My inlaws are the polar opposite and share and tell everyone everything, gossip, etc.

If they were to see a picture in a frame at our house or in a photo album on our shelves or on our computer, and they were not given that picture, they would make a comment "Oh, we never saw that picture!" and then ask for us to send it to them. They treat it like every picture of ours is really their picture to have. I feel like I share more than enough, probably more than I would like to already and I don't think its unreasonable to think that I wouldn't send them every single picture.

My parents seem to be much more content about pictures and aren't always asking about them. We send them regularly enough and they enjoy them but they don't expect a daily picture but probably wouldn't be opposed to it.

How do you parents/inlaws handle pictures of your kids? Do you think its reasonable to not send every single picture you take with the grandparents? Do you send daily pictures of your kids to the grandparents? I just can't imagine everyone sending their parents/inlaws daily pictures, every picture they take, etc.

(This isn't the first grandchild on either side - and he's 13 months by the way. This is just how my inlaws are and I don't think things will settle, if I had 10 kids this is how they would act)[/quote]
