[quote=Anonymous]OP, be sure to bookmark this thread. Come back to it if there is any question of travelling together again.

I'd still want to visit with the parents who raised me and whom I love, even if it is complicated. I'd have a few rules for myself:

1. Stay at a hotel if I visit their place, even if I am alone. Set this precedent now. I can always spend as much time as I want with them, but this way if and when DH ever comes, it's not suddenly a big thing that there is a hotel involved.

2. Meet them at places, don't travel together. If we are meeting at a place, know how the rooms will shake out. Either it's some space that is big enough to accommodate them as is (doesn't matter if they cancel or come), or I know there is no bunking in my family's space (e.g., I know the hotel limits to a certain number of people per room, so they have to get their own).

3. As someone mentioned above, always be super clear about the plan from the very first communication. Then stick to it.

Best wishes.[/quote]
