[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can't get past the evite.  Who uses evite to invite their parents and siblings to Thanksgiving dinner?

And I am on no one's team here, just think that part is so odd.[/quote]

I just used evite for 10 people for my daughter's second birthday "party." Work is crazy and it's easier than keeping straight in my head who all I need to make sure to have enough pizza and cupcakes for. And for who got invited to begin with, i.e. I didn't forget anyone accidentally.[/quote]

That is a completely normal and appropriate use of Evite.  Using Evite to inform your IL's that you're not coming to their Thanksgiving as you have in years past, and are freezing out their family friends who typically attended their Thanksgiving as well, is neither normal nor appropriate.

Okay, but shouldn't it be her son's responsibility to talk to his mom about the change of plans. I fail to see how this is the DIL's fault just because she created the evite account with her email address.

Also, the MIL is hurt that the DIL does not want to use MIL's china. Offering to bring china to someone else's house is beyond controlling and could offer a glimpse as to why her son did not want to talk to her about this ahead of time. [/quote]
