[quote=Anonymous]Make sure both you and your DH model the behavior you hope to see in the future. My DH will say he is close to his family, but literally ALL communication with them falls to me. Planning travel, mailing cards and gifts, arranging FaceTime for our 2 young DDs, even texting pictures of the girls to their grandparents. He makes very little effort at all to maintain regular contact, but he complains when we don’t see them or if we miss a birthday, etc. I take it on myself to manage the relationship with his side of the family because I was raised that family is important and effort should be made to maintain those bonds. Plus, I genuinely like his family. His brother is the exact same…all responsibility for maintaining a relationship with the family falls on his wife.[/quote]
