[quote=Anonymous]The only thing I would caution about putting off the visit is, are you fairly sure that they're not having some sort of crisis of their own or have news that they want to tell you in person that is time sensitive? If they just want to come and visit to see the grandkids etc then it's fine to put them off, but if they are making this visit because, e.g., someone has been diagnosed with cancer and they want to come before they are too weak from chemo, or they decided they're moving overseas, or they're divorcing, etc etc etc, and they want to tell you in person, then it may be more appropriate to put them first even if you guys are having a tough time right now. I know that can be hard to figure out over the phone, but just wanted to mention this so you consider the possibility that they may have something going on right now, too, that may be the real reason for the visit.[/quote]
