[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why can't the grandparents stay at SIL's house and have the sleepover there? Your kids can hang out there until it's late and then sleep at your own house. Then they can have the grandparents in the AM to themselves and your family of four can have a quiet Christmas morning. Then the whole family gathers later.

Your sick husband should not have to sleep in a hotel on Christmas because your SIL is an entitled brat.[/quote]

Lol. That option was suggested but rejected by the OP.[/quote]

[b]I suggested it to my SIL.  She rejected it.  I wrote in the OP that I suggested it to my SIL and she rejected it.[/b]  I also suggested the hotel.  I am fine with going to a hotel.  I'm not fine with what was suggested here which is going to a hotel and leaving my kids behind.

[b]At this point, FIL has said that he isn't comfortable with an overnight visit due to covid. [/b] [b]I am not sure if that's true, or if they're hurt that their daughter won't invite them to her house, and are using covid as an excuse.[/b]  So while this seemed like an option when I suggested it, it's no longer an option.

SIL wants the overnight visit with all the kids together as per tradition however that is only to happen at the grandparents house.  It can't happen at anyone else's house.  Suggestions of at SIL's house has been shot down by SIL.  FIL originally said for you to find a solution, now he is saying he also doesn't want the overnight visit.  Apparently though they haven't been invited to SIL's house although I thought this was given as an option and shot down by SIL unless that's another daughter.

So 17 pages in and if you don't want the overnight visit, your in-laws don't want the overnight visit and everyone is happy with the original plan, what is the problem.  Just tell SIL which I thought a few pages back your FIL did that no one else wants the kids sleeping over together.  Done.

What are you still talking about, your SIL won't have the sleep over at her house and you and your in-laws won't have it at the grandparents house.  This has to be the best troll thread ever, 17 pages of nitpicking to fire everyone up.  No one can be this stupid, if no one is willing to have it in their house, its not going to happen.  This is why the other childless adults have jumped ship and are going to their in-laws, they saw this stupidity a mile back and ran.

Honestly if your grandparents aren't happy with the sleepover where is the problem?  Just tell SIL due to Covid it's not happening, maybe next year.[/quote]
