[quote=Anonymous][quote]But no one is suggesting OP should not use her vacation days to take the Grand Canyon trip - that makes sense. But it does seem unfair to get worked up about MIL not changing the date of the party because she has no vacation days - she does, but is choosing to use them for something else. It's fair for MIL to keep the party on the 4th and fair for OP not to go or to leave early. It's not fair for OP to be upset that MIL won't change the party (and it doesn't sound like she is - just responding to the general posts on the matter).[/quote]

I've got a fucked up family of origin and my ILs aren't the greatest.  However, we can all appreciate limited number of days off and trying to work schedules.  I would absolutely consider moving the date of my get-together in order to eliminate the need for them to take leave and, as messed up as they are, so would my family and ILs.  We'd all appreciate having to build up leave reserves after 2 maternity leaves and the wanting to go on a spectacular trip to the Grand Canyon.[/quote]
