[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, you've described my family to a T. I don't get why it bothers you so much. If they are around when you visit, you see them. If they are not around, then we don't see them on that visit. But, just because one or another of my siblings isn't around during a visit doesn't mean we cut them off. [/quote] The point of the visit is half to see them, half to see my husband's parents. We'd love to jet off to Hawaii or wherever too but we make sacrifices to see family. [/quote] Then jet off to Hawaii and stop bitching because other people do what they want to do and you do not. Why all the angst when you evidently see these people a few times a year? Honest to goodness, if you bring this much stress your family may not feel as close to you as you think all these visits make you. Relationships are based on the quality of the 'relating', not the quantity of visits you can foist on people. Take a chill.[/quote]
