[quote=Anonymous]It's ok to feel upset OP. I know my DH has some jealousy for how generous with their TIME ILs have been to his sister compared to him. They tend to be fair with how they give monetary gifts, but due to proximity they spend a lot more time with SIL and her family, including babysitting their kids on multiple occasions when SIL/BIL go out of town. They will drive 2 hrs each way every week to watch nephew's HS soccer games but when DH invites them to our DC's birthday, a 2hr flight to DC is somehow too stressful (they're retired and have plenty of money). I think they have this old-fashioned attitude that parents are supposed to be closer to their daughter and her kids than the son. Which is kind of a self-fulfilling prophecy since they make such little effort to spend time with us. [/quote]
