[quote=Anonymous]Do you spend time with your siblings' in-laws? What is the expectation in the U.S. for this? Aren't you just expected to spend time with your own blood relative and your own in-laws? My brother is getting married soon, and my mom is insisting that we start spending holidays with my brother's in-laws. I don't know what she is thinking, she never batted an eye when he didn't spend time with my in-laws. Can anyone relate? I just don't get it. I have already told her that I'm not interested in spending time with them (they are out of state) and that I already have a lot of family obligations (her and my dad live nearby, my in-laws live 10 min. away, sister-in-law lives nearby, our 3 kids are older and have a lot of school/after school activities, etc.)[/quote]
