[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sheesh, you could have scrawled a few lines and handed it to your husband to do the same and post in the amount of time it took you to write this.[/quote]

Time equivalents aren't the issue. [/quote]

NP. Why, then? [/quote]

Exactly, this doesn’t make sense.[/quote]

Really?  You determine what you do by how much time it will take you to do it?  I wouldn't do this because it strengthens the perception that I, a woman, am responsible for managing my DH's relationships with his family.  It would send the message that I accept that this is a woman's responsibility - that I could be guilted into doing something.  If I do this once, I'll be expected to do it again the next time this kid or other nieces/nephews go to camp.  If it was something that I wanted to do, that would be different.  OP doesn't want to do it and she shouldn't be judged for not doing it. [/quote]

What? Quickly dashing off a line then handing it over to DH to complete and mail is assuming all the emotional labor for his family? lmao.[/quote]

Letters to camp are mostly electronic now. I doubt there is a physical card to mail.  [/quote]
