[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's possible your brother visits his parents more when she is out of town so he doesn't have to take care of the kids by himself.  Your brother should check with the wife on the family schedule because its very apparent by your description of him, he does not handle anything with the calendar much less make any real family decisions so yeah.

A lot of the time there isn't a conflicting event, they just "are focusing on family time." And my parents aren't even proposing specific times, simply asking if there is a time that works in the next few weeks - they're retired and flexible. I don't know why you are bending over backwards to pretend that 100% of the time bad family dynamics are solely the husband's fault. That's clearly absurd. Everyone involved in these situations is making his or her own choices and should be responsible for them. Your position seems to be that it's a man's job to override his wife when he doesn't agree with her approach to his family, but I find that perspective unrealistic in some cases, like this one. Your thinking on this topic is bizarrely rigid. [/quote]
