[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your post is very confusing op.  What do you want to have happen for Christmas?  What are the objections you’re seeing or anticipating from others?[/quote]

I just reread the post and it doesn’t sound confusing to be but I’m the one who wrote it.

In years past, we would usually take turns with my parents and in laws whether they visited us or we would visit them. My BIL (DH’s brother) did not live locally and would either join us at my house or his parents’ house or do his own thing. BIL now lives near us. Because my family is coming to our house, I want my MIL to stay with BIL at his house and come to our house for Christmas since our house is already full.

I think I unnecessarily feel guilty about MIL. If her son (BIL) doesn’t want to host (let her stay at his house), we should not feel bad or guilty that she doesn’t come this year but I feel bad. I’m considering switching our holiday plans now to just visit my family.[/quote]

How selfish.  How much work is 2 extra for dinner?[/quote]
