[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's fair for you to say that you won't be hauling your family of four, newborn (!) included, anywhere anytime soon, but that the ILs are welcome to visit anytime. I don't think it's fair to ask/request/dictate how many times your ILs need to come see you before you'll go see them. I know they tried to pull that act on you, but that's not how this ought to work - with you all "owing" each other visits. That's just weird. Both sides should try to see each other as often as is enjoyable and feasible for you - it's okay if that works out more frequently for one side than the other. [/quote] +1 You don't need to "put your foot down" and enforce a new rule. Just tell them that you won't be travelling as much with a new baby, but they are welcome to visit. Then revisit the situation as the baby gets older and you see what your new routine looks like. [/quote]
