[quote=Anonymous]My parents also are a two-hour flight away, but they (and we) usually make the 10-hour drive rather than flying. (Mom sometimes flies by herself.) When my family drives, we usually stay overnight in a hotel on the way there and on the way back, but my parents drive straight through. My parents together come out to see us about 2-3 times a year, staying for a long weekend or maybe 5 days tops, at our house. My mom comes by herself more frequently as she's fully retired and likes to travel more. (Dad's a homebody.) We travel to see them about twice a year. If they stay in a hotel when they visit, I don't think that frequency/duration is too bad, though maybe you could get some of those stays down to a long weekend rather than a week? Have you thought about driving to see them occasionally? It's not that bad, and that may "satisfy" their needs a bit more and result in less frequent visits, if it's too much for you. How often does your spouse's family visit?[/quote]
