To be mad my folks gatecrashed xmas?

[merrychristonabike]

Me DH and our kids went to a hotel for xmas - a tradition we adopted to escape the 'where will you be at xmas?' from mum and dad every year. We've invited them and my in-laws before, but it wasn't fun as my parents were clearly put out they were sharing the time with in-laws.
On arrival on xmas eve, my parents were there to 'surprise' us and we were furious. My husband later asked them why they were there and my dad flipped, telling my husband he'd always had his suspicions about him and generally being a dick. Dad didn't wish DH merry Christmas, ignored him at dinner and left without saying goodbye to either of us,
It ruined the 3 night stay. They didn't bring the kids' gifts - I think so we will still have to go see them and I just can't face it. There's a bit of back story to their behaviour, but it's too long for here other than them being overbearing and intense. And I also just want to know AIBU? And what's your advice yo navigate this?

and you are also here weeks later, arguing!

On the right side though, because dopes reactivated it in the watched threads.
The two things are not the same.

Like him being a pointless twatarse?

@merrychristonabike - Did you come up with a plan to avoid their madness this year?

Oh I’m so glad to see this post again! Do tell us how things are, and what you are doing for Christmas

@merrychristonabike how are things?

This is for catandsquirrel, sorry can't find your comment. If you are saying that OP needs therapy, I heartily disagree. The one with the problem is her father who she thinks could be nasty to her Mum.
