[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is OP - I am not trying to say that everyone should revolve their schedules around me and my family, I simply think it would be nice to take young kids into consideration when planning things. DH’s family is very considerate in this respect so I know some families do this.

I get major guilt trips for skipping events or leaving early since we rarely see everyone... so if that’s the case why not just think about what may work for young kids - there are many in the family not just mine.

And I also get comments about my kids whining at the dinner table etc which are super frustrating.[/quote]

Your DH should or could leave early with kids if this is your family.

Dh’s family is here for xmas and we went out for lunch. I left early with my whiny toddler. Dh is still at brunch with his family and I am now home with a napping toddler.

You could have gotten a hotel room or let child nap in the car.

When we are on vacation, we often take drives just so my toddler can nap.[/quote]
