[quote=Anonymous]If you typically spend Thanksgiving with your parents I think you need to let your parents know that this year you will not be with them but you do hope that they will come spend Christmas with you. Be very matter of fact about Thanksgiving. You are spending Thanksgiving with your siblings and will see your parents at Christmas. If you know your parents friends, and are comfortable you might suggest to your mom that she invite a few people over for Thanksgiving. We alternate holidays with my parents and my in-laws. After a few years I got to know the dynamics of my parents neighbors and figured out that there were a number of households that were all spending Thanksgiving at home. I suggested to my parents that they host for their neighbors. It has worked out great. [/quote]
