[quote=Anonymous]My long-term issue has been that the ILs favor the in-town grandkids over mine. Partly it's understandable in that they see them more, understand their needs and preferences more, etc. But partly it's also just rude -- I think they could make a better effort. I brought it up finally, after years of stewing, and it helped to the extend that at least now I don't feel like I have this big secret. They responded with fluff ("we are sorry you feel this way," etc.) that led me to believe they don't agree with my assessment, and not surprisingly, nothing has changed about their behavior. So in that sense, it didn't really help. But it did help my mental state to not just bottle it up. And now that I've explained my position, and they've still changed nothing, I feel like it's fair game for us to make a lot less effort with visits.[/quote]
