[quote=Anonymous]I guess I'm in the way minority, but I really don't see the problem in inviting them to do a quick popover (one night, staying at a hotel, seeing you for dinner and breakfast) if the birthday timing is super important to them or for a longer stay in a month if they can be more flexible. You already have house guests! They live pretty close! I could very easily have that conversation with both my parents and my inlaws. (And I have trouble imagining any reasonable adults who couldn't.) Also, your kids are teen/tween-age?! Did your grandparents spend every birthday with you at that age? I just think you need to re-set expectations a bit. And yeah, they might be disappointed but only they can control their feelings. [/quote]
