[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn't mean to spark a big debate. I said what I needed to MIL and really just needed to set a precedence that for this holiday and future ones, if its just immediate family, the meal needs to be at a more reasonable hour. There is no need to sit at the table until midnight (what MIL would like to do and wants to do especially on Christmas Eve) when it is just the immediate 6 family members present.

my side of the family is huge- 30 plus people at a gathering. in a situation like this.. I am extremely flexible. and would never ask for mealtime consideration for a toddler. You figure it out.. go late/come early/come for apps. With respect to my inlaws  I also realize that since we are half of the party and a lot of effort goes into cooking, we should be there for the actual dinner! WE spend the entire day there, help cook, kid takes a nap there, etc, There are no other time constraints (no one is working or has other gatherings to attend), etc., so we can eat before 8PM.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
