[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Christmas celebrations are nice, but warm weather vacations are even better. I doubt SIL had to “strongarm” her husband into anything. Lol.

Also, they live nearby…this isn’t a “but it is the only time a year we see each other!” sort of thing. They can spend time with your mom any other time.

Their kids are getting older (and most likely less Santa-focused) and now have school breaks etc to work around also. Makes total sense for their family to consider traveling over break now, even though they didn’t before.

They are in the same region—ex Bethesda to Baltimore—not the same town. My mother only sees them a handful of times per year. Her parents live in their same town and see them practically every day.[/quote]

If your mother only sees them a handful of times a year and it’s less than an hour of driving distance, then clearly seeing her is not that much of a priority to YOUR BROTHER, THE SON SHE RAISED, irrespective of holidays or travel plans.

Your. Brother. Doesn’t. Care. That. Much. About. Your. Family. Be upset about that, and stop bashing your SIL. [/quote]
