[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a son--I just don't want to be an IL after reading all of these threads. OP- yes, it's mean and your inlaws will feel snubbed and excluded. [/quote] They won’t feel snubbed because they won’t know. “Did Sebastian have his karate ceremony this year?” “We kept the karate ceremony kind of low-key this year, Edna and Earl, so it was just Larla, the kids and myself. But no reason we can’t still plan a dinner with to to celebrate now. Does next Friday work?” Do you all really invite your whole family to every little event?[/quote] So, your suggestion is to lie to the inlaws, so OP can have "alone time" with her parents because they won't see reach other for . . . two whole months? Lovely. [/quote] Sure. Do you never call in sick when you aren’t really sick? Do you never tell someone you can’t make it to something because of X, when in reality, you just don’t want to go? You’ve never exaggerated the truth to suit you. Well, aren’t you perfect! Yes. I would suggest that, if asked, they lie. It’s not admitting that the other grands came, it’s saying the truth: it was more low-key this year. [/quote]
