[quote=Anonymous]Well, I think the fact that OP confused 'elitism' with BIL & SIL's unhappiness at being forced to host is sympomatic of the problem. OP does not understand the family dynamics and chalks it up to them being stuck-up. The ILs moved to FL to be closer to BIL & SIL. BIL & SIL are probably sick of their proximity. My guess is the parents are constantly barging in while the BIL & SIL have to go about their day. ILs want a holiday party but pressure BIL & SIL to do the hosting gruntwork. We tend to fail to see social impropriety and overstepping when dealing with family. But OP, if you wouldn't do this to your friend, don't do it to your BIL & SIL - no matter what the whackadoodle pushy parents say.[/quote]
