[quote=Anonymous]..those that don't (and MIL herself) can move on to the next thread.... I likely will not attend this year, but MIL has a way of giving my family (her son) the worst accommodations. MIL invites visitors, but there is barely enough room for family she invites. My family sleeps five to a room, while the others have their own rooms. DH will not speak up, and I am "terrible" if I speak up. Sons in law only can speak up, they are male; not daughters in law, not sons, sometimes daughters can. We have our own vacation place and time, so this cuts into that, on top of the miserable experience. Only what sons in law or daughters say counts, and it makes for a horrible experience. DH insists on going. Should I book a hotel for them ahead of time, or wait until we get there, I suppose is the ultimate question? Should I send MIL an email telling her that the amenities she pointed out will not work for us? I real don't know what to do - I'm damned if I do and damned if I don't, so I may as well speak up. DH and I work and we can not show up early like the ILs do, to claim the biggest space for the fewest people, in their case. [/quote]
