[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MIL likely wants to avoid seeing her grandchildren more loving and familiar with your local parents. Tough. [/quote] I think this is it in a nutshell. In the past I’ve tried to be sensitive to this and we plan a meal in a restaurant which is neutral territory vs. at my house where my parents have the “upper hand” because they’re more familiar with it. But I also feel like MIL should be able to make nice for 2 hours or so considering she’s happy to keep up her front of being interested in maintaining a relationship with my parents, but doesn’t want to ever actually see them. I do think it would be nice for the kids’ sake to see them all together. FWIW, we’re Jewish so the Christmas piece isn’t really a factor here. -OP[/quote]
