[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have one small child and one on the way and I don't visit my parents, who live out in the PNW.

I've been thinking about this a lot lately because I get sick of spending all the holidays with my ILs, but my H does not fly, I don't really want to shell out for the plane tickets, and the biggest factor of all is my parents live in a barely inhabitable place that I cannot stay in with small children. They don't really ask for us to visit as they understand these are the circumstances, but it makes me a little sad that it's not even an option. I think if I REALLY wanted to come they might offer to help with the tickets or at least an AirBnB near their house, but it's just such a stretch. They are always welcome to visit us but mostly choose expensive cruises (my mom) or to stay home instead (my dad, who then boo-hoos about never seeing his grandkid). Not much else I can do, though.[/quote]

Why doesn’t your H fly?  You only ever travel to places within driving distance? [/quote]
