[quote=Anonymous]Many years ago my husband invited his parents to join us for a milestone birthday at 1789. During a post-dinner stroll, we overheard them crabbing about the profligacy of spending “so much” on dinner. We stopped inviting them out after that. Simple as. This past summer, MiL brought up how nice she remembered that dinner being. Too bad. We stopped giving each other gifts at the holidays because we’re all adults who are able to buy things for ourselves. In OPs case, I’d do an immediate family Xmas morning event and then invite extended family over in the afternoon or evening after all presents have been exchanged. For everything else, put your parents on an information diet. They can’t use the things they don’t know against you.[/quote]
