[quote=Anonymous]I would stop the visits, tell them in no uncertain terms that they are the ones that can afford to visit and you cannot.

I would hint around or post on FB about so and so's parents who take them on their vacations, are helping pay for grand-kids college. And what great grand-parents they are and how you plan to be the same way to your grand-kids.  Big Hint!  If not FB I would tell your parents.  Another thing if you are taking the time to fly to see them, they should at least pay for the tickets or offer especially since they are well off.

My aunt and uncle were wealthy like my parents, they gifted all three kids throughout their lives, gave one a condo when they upscaled to nicer one in FL.  They and their spouses always met there for vacations between the 2 condos.  My aunt bought her youngest a home near her for he and his wife because a business he co-owned started to do poorly in "05".  They couldn't afford the big nice homes that my other 2 cousins had.  This family was always close, whereas my wealthy parents did very little.  In fact they were embarrassing, few visits and little gifts around the holidays...that was it.
