[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your DH is great. Your ILs suck, sorry. They don't need to be adding to your mental load. Unless they have limited mobility or are still working busy jobs, they should figure this out. I would not bother making this trek to visit them again.[/quote] I don't know. I don't think they suck. It isn't a big difference to cook for 2 extra people - but it is for 8! she is cooking for 10 people for each meal. They are also older so it is a lot of work for them and costly. You are visiting for a long time. I would totally expect you to chip in with regard to work and cost. My dad alone visited for Thanksgiving and helped where he could and we would let him AND he chipped in. And to be honest, when I visit my parents (especially with my sister and her family) NO ONE expects my parents to do everything. And finally, making meals together is a social event. [/quote]
