[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If this were my IL's, I'd appear for the start of the call if I was free, and then I'd just get up and start doing other stuff. I don't understand why you think you have to be there the whole time? [/quote] That’s what my sister-in-law does every call. It is obvious she could give a crap about us. It doesn’t go unnoticed.[/quote] I could say a lot about introverts and communication styles and how working parents with kids should grab any breaks they can -- but honestly, yeah, maybe she doesn't give a crap. She's not required to. She married your sibling, not you. If she meets the minimum bar of being civil, she has done all she needs to do. Much better for her to get up after a short chat, than to resent you because she wants to be anywhere else than on the call. That's how IL relationships get ruined. [/quote]
