[quote=Anonymous]It is totally fine to give them a gift. It is totally fine to host them for something at their convenience. But honestly, you seem to want them to fawn over this or something. I generally like my in laws a lot. But if my MIL was like “my gift to you is having you to the house for pizza,” I likely would not fawn over it. I would say “thank you.” And it honestly frustrates me sometimes when my ILs get all hell bent on doing things with ALL OF US. It is hard to coordinate three families, and the best actual gift to me would be for my husband and kids to go and leave me in my house blissfully alone. Once my husband says “oh wife can’t make it, but the kids and I will be there,” it turns into trying to get new date after new date. And makes me insane. You cannot get everybody all the time.
