[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So OP’s mom abdicated most of her parenting to her own parents, but it’s the inlaws who are terrible. [/quote] This is not what I read. Her father’s love language is gifts not time. Her mother is busy helping her own parents in advanced old age. She did not say her ails are terrible but that she is sad the6 are not more involved. “Always asking if I can bring the kids by for a visit, inviting them for sunday breakfast, scheduling holidays, seeing if I can help them with anything, saying I made extra leftovers of their favorite meal can I drop it off for them etc. They just don't seem to ever reciprocate or initiate.” (OP on ILs) Stop shaming her for having legit feelings. Part of healing and moving on is accepting uncomfortable feelings as they come up - and then finding ways to let them go.[/quote]
