[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Even worse than the OPs are all the commenters who pretend that the 26th or 27th are just as good as the 24th or 25th (except when it comes to their side of the family, of course). [/quote]

The OP of one thread today specified she's seeing her parents on the 24th, and she doesn't want to see her in-laws on the 25th. Seems reasonable in this context to offer the 26th. I did not see a recent thread where OPs were truly unfair to their in-laws.[/quote]
I’m the OP of that thread and don’t appreciate you twisting and leaving out details to suit this thread.

As I said in that thread, we have hosted ILs for years. This year, my FIL was a jerk to my DH and they haven’t spoken since October. Subsequently, I made usual plans with my family on the 24th, because we never visit my family on the 25th, that’s typically reserved for ILs. But this year, since my FIL is a jerk and hasn’t spoken to us, I think it’s time to set the 25th aside and forge our own traditions for once.

Don’t twist my words. Also, don’t be a jerk to your kids and you won’t be in this situation.[/quote]
PP back to apologize, as I quoted the wrong person! Sorry! I meant to quote the poster you quoted![/quote]
