[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People who are easy to be with and help out get invited more often than people who don’t. If that means the mother is invited more often than the MIL, then so be it.[/quote] This is pretty much it. I have both sets of grandparents local. Mom and MIL both helped with the kids when they were little. My mom can’t anymore because she is taking care of my father so I try to invite her out as much as possible. MIL is just a very cold and impossible to talk to person so I never invite her anywhere and I don’t think she’d want to do anything with just me. I leave it to my husband to invite her and she barely talks to him. Even the kids say she never talks or smiles. She acts like she’s in pain if you try to converse. There’s obviously some kind of spectrum thing going on but my husband tries to be scrupulously fair about grandkids time.[/quote]
