[quote=Anonymous]Every week, you call and say "Can Larlita (Grand daughter) and I, swing by for 30 minutes because she wants to meet you?" And do it. If they say that they are watching a game say "Great! Can we come by? What can we bring?" Keep your interactions limited to - a weekly 30 minutes. Also, do the same with your uncles, aunts and cousins from your side. Then, every once a while, you throw an outdoors party for the whole your side of the family, your parents, their siblings and spouse and their family. If they are outdoors, they will not comment on your house, and you can just order pizza or something... You can't change your parents. They are who they are. You can certainly manage your interactions and relationship with them. [/quote]
