[quote=Anonymous]I like the earlier suggestion of having a standing, monthly dinner with them. I suspect your parents dislike of the inlaws is due to your parents not feeling like they are good enough. It leads to them being defensive and looking for reasons to avoid spending time with them. The situation obviously weighs heavily on you. I'd suggest some therapy -- to help you figure out what you want from your relationship with your parents and to develop some coping skills. I don't think you should cut them out of your life. They haven't done anything egregious, but there's obviously some hurt feelings on both sides.[/quote]
