[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]My view is that MIL cancelled pretty easily and it was not at all important to her to make alternate plans for any of us to get together, which makes us believe it really isn't all that important to her or FIL. We took our cue from her and made alternate plans that now involve other people.[/quote]

OP, this is the part I don't get.  Why was it all up to MIL to make alternate plans for everyone.  Why didn't you (or DH) pick up the phone, call BIL and say, "Since you and all the others will already becoming to town, let's do XYZ" and still have a family gathering?

It's like because MIL didn't make every last little plan, you all are out in the cold not able to fend for yourself and go out to a frickin dinner with your Dh's siblings and family.  And instead of choosing to spend time with your family, you chose for your kid to go to the game DESPITE the fact that everyone was coming into town.

It's a big fail on your part - YOU chose to not see family and instead have your kid go to the game - Regardless of whether a birthday party was planned or not.  [/quote]
