[quote=Anonymous]When we are with my ILs, I feel great about things and have a great attitude through day 4, then on day 5 it's like someone waved a wand and I am sulky, resentful, sensitive, and desperately want to be away from them. It's like everything they do and say drives me nuts. I smile and don't show my feelings, but it is like clockwork how this happens every single visit with them. I cannot imagine doing 3 weeks, but OP, I think you have to. I try to focus on their good qualities, on what good grandparents they are (although they feel entitled to stuff my kids with candy and coke), and I try to go for walks or naps every day if we are on vacation with them. My MIL is passive aggressive and obsessed with her appearance and her weight and it is so very tiring.[/quote]
