christmas visits!

[chris22]

AM I UNREASONABLE? THE ONLY VISITS WE RECEIVE FRO SON-IN-LAW AND FAMILY ARE ONE HOUR BOXING DAY KIDS BIRTHDAYS AND EASTER WE GET ONE DAYS NOTICE THEIR COMING NEVER CONTACT THE REST OF YEAR WE DONT EVEN KNOW WHICH SCHOOLS THE KIDS GO TO ONCE MY HUSBAND HANDS OVER CHRISTMAS/BIRTHDAY MONEY THEY ARE OFF I AM SICK OF IT AND HAVE TAKEN TO DISAPPEARING WHEN THEY COME BECAUSE I FEEL SO UNCOMFORTABLE I REALLY WOULD LIKE TO BE IN MY OWN HOME THIS BOXING DAY NOT WALKING THE STREETS!

Would you like to calm down and repost that, telling us who you are, what the family set-up is, and using mixed case so you don't appear to be shouting?

Just don't hand over any money. That'll fox the bastards.

LOL

Start knitting, you can have a scarf a piece made for them by Christmas - hello, we thought we'd give you these this year.

Oh, and your post would be much easier to read in Sentece case rather than capitals. I know you're pee-ed off but there's no need to shout at us.

Agree with previous posters, we're not the ones who turn up expecting money! I also think a small gift, like a hand knitted scarf or something really inappropriate might be your best bet to break this cycle. "Couldn't afford money this year so got you this, but as we never see you we don't know what your interests are"

DON'T GIVE THEM MONEY.

TRY TO CONTACT THEM YOURSELF.

TRY NOT TO LEAVE THE HOUSE WHEN THEY COME AND MAKE THEM FEEL WELCOME INSTEAD.

is this your daughter you are talking about?
