[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had the opposite issue with my inlaws. They would visit and sit on our couch 24/7. Wouldn't talk to us, wouldn't play with the kids. It was the weirdest dynamic. Why visit to watch TV in a different place?[/quote] This!! My in-laws, who are young and fit, park themselves on the sofa and immediately pick out a tv series or movie…and don’t move. Or engage. They become annoyed at the mere suggestion of going to do anything (a walk? Watch soccer practice? A meal out?). Last time FIL was put off when we asked to please turn the volume down during the kids bedtime…and again at 11pm. I feel zero guilt rarely having them over. Zero![/quote]
