Okay, my MIL is getting b****y all over again because we can't take a trip to see her this year. Admittedly, it's been 3 years since we traveled from our home (Texas) to where she's at in Georgia. But our not being there had nothing to do with wanting to be there; it's had everything to do with COULDN'T and CAN'T get there because of finances, school, work, surgery...whatever.
Now, we've made the trip numerous times over the years anyway...always by car and will small kids in tow. (The first time we went my son was 6 months old...ugh!) But my MIL (none of my in-laws really) has EVER been to our home...she has NEVER taken the trip for herself, even when we offered to pay for it. She tells us she "doesn't travel" but she went on a cruise a couple years ago and planned to travel by bus to see relatives in Ohio earlier this year.
Are we wrong to be so pissed off, especially when she berates us all the time? Why is it always OUR responsibility to make the journey?
