Name changed for this but been around the block for years snappedandfarted, penis beaker and so forth. Daily mail can also fuck off if they think they are stealing my thread again!
We have hosted my dp for couple of years due to ill health and a way of saying thankyou for all their help, my df has terminal cancer and thankfully he’s had 2 years since diagnosis but has deteriorated and likely be his last Christmas.
DH wanted to go to in-laws for dinner, last year mil cancelled Christmas and saw no one until the 27th so missed seeing grandkids on Christmas Day. In-laws don’t bother with us or the kids in general but constantly have sils dd.
Dh wanted to go to mils this year, I reluctantly agreed so dh asked her mils and she stated she was thinking of going out for dinner with Sil and her family but was unsure, as fil wasn’t keen and they thought they might stay at home, dh offered to come round and buy the food but mil responded that she was unsure of her plans fair enough. Mil always favoured spending time with Sil and her dc to us. Having speaking to my dh we decided we would host my parents especially for everything they have done for us help and support with the kids and a treat for them.
Dh takes dd round and mil tell dd that Sil has a special kids table for them when they have Christmas dinner at theirs 😕 we already made plans but now dh wants to go there. I think it’s an extremely rude personally to uninvite my parents. Another issue I have is how they treat my ds from a previous relationship, they get him a gift but it’s conaiderably less and so evident when the other two dc are opening his present and he gets one tub of sweets and a card with a tenner in. Mn who’s bu? I feel they only want us to come now because they aren’t going out and Sil is coming with her family.
