My parents are divorced and both remarried then there's PIL. All live close by.
We have two small DDs.
Christmas is always really difficult to sort. We tend to upset someone every year and either have three or four "Christmas Days" between 24-29 Dec, or do loads of running around on Christmas Day and/or Boxing Day.
Last year we had all the parents come to us but it was too much for DD1 being the only kid amongst a gaggle of competitive enthusiastic grandparents. DM was also fairly rude about the whole day afterwards (but that's another thread) so I'm not massively keen to repeat that experience.
All of them say they'll go with whatever we decide but that just feels like the whole thing is down to us to decide and plan.
It feels impossible to be honest.
Does anyone else have this palaver? How do you manage it???? Help!
