[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]not defending DH's parents, but I always wonder how my kids will treat my husband and I when we visit their families when they are grown. I am sure I'd want to see my sons more than once a year for a few days. I bet step 1 is to stay at the hotel and step 2 is to volunteer to babysit a lot or step 3 meet at a resort. Hopefully we'll have a better relationship that this is not an issue. [/quote]

I LOVE my parents and they're my best friends. But 10 days of them and I might go insane. The vast majority of adults don't even have that much leave that they could take off while they're parents visit. I get 2.5 weeks a year, 10 days of visiting would wipe me out of leave and I wouldn't be able to take my own vacation. [/quote]

It's this.  And most parents get it, they really do.  They had parents/in-laws who liked to visit, too.

This idea that everyone has to pile into the same house and Make.It.Work.Dammit is silly.  If it doesn't work, find another solution.[/quote]
