[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH and I had our first baby this year and we've all spent time with the respective in-laws in some form. His parents and my parents get along moderately okay-they have very little in common, but manage to make polite conversation about the weather when they see each other. There are some political clashes, which can be mediated with strategic changes of topic. They would never elect to be in each other's company, but nobody would take out a gun. The issue is, we're both only children and for medical reasons this probably will be our only child. That means both sets of in-laws have just one grandchild, and they all want to be there for her first Christmas. Should we have Christmas all together, risking icy family relationships but allowing everyone to experience the holiday with their granddaughter? Anyone experienced in this?[/quote] Just don't have everyone stay under one roof and you'll be fine. Trust me on this one. [/quote]
