[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All of the posters saying how the BIL is “family” and family is more important than anything else, do they not consider adult children family? When your kids are grown and scattered, it is not often that you can all be together, regardless of whether it’s a parent’s birthday or whatever occasion. To me, that family has significantly more importance than extended family. [/quote]

I agree!!!!  We cherish the times when we are together with all of our kids (3 kids, 2 launched in different cities (think 2 flights away) and one still in college also 2 flights and 2500 miles away).  So it takes a lot of planning to manage getting everyone together somewhere.  If it's not at home, it also means a AirBnB/VRBO rental which often cannot be cancelled less than 1 month out.  A funeral of a close relative or friend is the only real reason I would consider adjusting our planned, well scheduled gathering as a family.  It's okay to say no to invitations if it doesn't fit your schedule, even if its family
