[quote=Anonymous]ILs are primarily DH's responsibility. I will help out when truly needed, by 95% of the time, he runs point on them. Both DH and I know how to say NO. N-O. They want every holiday with us. No--you get what you get. They want tons of vacation with us. No--you get what you get. They want daily phone calls. Nope, it's weekly unless something is truly urgent or wrong. Sometimes they express disappointment. Oh well, meeting their every wish and expectation is not our job, and their feelings aren't ours to manage. When needed, I do make it clear that if our efforts to spend time, holidays, vacation, money and energy on them aren't appreciated, those efforts can reduce or stop.[/quote]
