[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Give it time.  You will stop feeling bad about it. [/quote]
I hope so. I think what I’m doing is looking at it though the lenses of a loving parent who puts a lot of positive energy into her relationship with her children, and feeling empathy for that parent. But MIL isn’t that parent, so I shouldn’t. DH knows this, I know this, but I don’t think MIL does. In a strange way, I pity her. I’m sad for her that she wasn’t a better parent. That probably makes no sense. [/quote]

Just think...if you have boys you too will have a son who is apathetic towards you and a DIL who will be gleeful to not see you over the holidays. Just enjoy your kids now. The clock is ticking.[/quote]

No not all sons are apathetic.  Most I know keep regular contact with their families.  And if you are nice to your DIL chances are she will be nice back.  DIL's don't just ignore their MIL's for no reason, usually there are plenty of reasons for doing so.[/quote]
