In laws

[Robyner]

Is it just me that has in laws that cant be arsed?
Weve recently moved back to the area and i can count the times weve seen dhs mum.
She uses the fact that she dosent drive as an excuse but several people have told me they often see her on the bus and shes reguarly meets up with friends as well which must take effort.
Weve now moved to the same village and are ten minutes walk away, but guess what? She hasnt bothered to come and see her grandaughter once, it really is like she cant be arsed and i dont think she likes me much.
Despite telling her shes always welcome, she never says the same so we dont feel we can go there and we are never invited. She makes an effort to see her other grandchild.
Its nearly christmas and shes not been in touch with any arrangements. Im just having a rant.

Maybe she doesn't want to come without an invitation? Personally I hate people just dropping in and it would drive me crackers if my parents or inlaws just turned up without notice.

I would try asking her to come on certain days/times, maybe the same time every week to see her grandchild and see how that goes.

My inlaws are very much time this and we live a field away!!

Before lo me and inlaws had a good relationship, got on well, saw each other regularly - but now we can go a month without her laying eyes on my lg which I find so bizzare! My mum and dad would go crazy if they didn't see her once a week let alone once a month!

When we do see each other it's always me making the arrangements! But, when it comes to it, they always make a fuss of lo and my lo loves seeing them, it's just a shame they don't see her often!
