[quote=Anonymous]Maybe we can all agree on some terminology here. invite: to extend an offer to attend disinvite: to withdraw a previously given offer to attend not invite: to withhold an offer to attend And then there is a fourth thing that I'm not sure there is a word for, that people are proposing. I'll call it "anti-invite" anti-invite: to affirmatively go out of your way to tell someone they are not welcome in advance Seems like the right thing to do here is simply not invite. No need to talk to the ILs about it at all. (You're also a solid 8 months early in even thinking about this.) OP, you were clear that the ILs didn't show up unannounced on a door step a few years ago. They let you know ahead of time that they planned on going. IF that happens this time, that is when you say something. [/quote]
