[quote=Anonymous]You have to do something to show respect and love for your MIL. If your other in-laws are rude takers, set up boundaries to protect yourself from them. People have lots of ideas. They can stay in a hotel, catered dinner, dinner at a restaurant, one person takes one day, etc. Do whatever you feel you need to do to make things fair and less of a burden to you, and make no apologies for it. You can even refuse to host if you feel that strongly about it, although I think that would be like punishing your MIL on a special birthday and I personally would never do that to the mother of my husband. What you *can't* do is agree to host and then disappear to a yoga retreat. That would be unspeakable.[/quote]
