[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let go of the holiday hope. Drive to see them. Make the effort, push if you have to, to see them some other time. My guess though ~ this is not all that you would hope it would be. Probably having nothing to do with your special circumstance ... if the relationship isn't there, organically, it's just isn't there. And plenty of people have that extended family situation WITH parents living.[/quote] This. My DH and I both have living parents and they don’t invite us fir holidays or come to see us. And we have kids. They just aren’t interested. It is sad.[/quote] NP. I know how you feel - same situation. But as they age and decline, you will be expected to drop your life to do everything they want when they want it - not what they need, what they *want*, even if its unreasonable.[/quote]
