[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If the in-laws really wanted to spend time during holidays they would make an EQUAL effort and not just make passive-aggressive comments to a grandchild. 
Why isn't anyone questioning why the DH doesn't want to spend a lot of time with his parents?

THIS.

OP, I'm with you.  My MIL loves to make snide comments while not actually DOING anything to get the time she says she wants so badly.  She doesn't make me feel welcome, makes little digs whenever she can, and barely exhibits any care towards me as a person.  So no, I also would not take my kids to see her on a holiday if my DH had to work.  I will do what *I* find enjoyable.  Now, what I would do is invite her to my parent's house on the day of.  She and FIL.  They'd never come, but that would be my response to her dig.  "Oh MIL, you are welcome to join us at my parent's house on Tday.  Generally we arrive around noon and eat at 2pm".

Of course this year I'm not doing any gatherings so it's not a huge deal.[/quote]
