I just don't like that idea at all. My inlaws have been divorced since my dh was five years old. Both are remarried. It's absolutely ridiculous. I am a full time student and my husband just took a new job.
Money is short.
We want to give our sonsa nice Cristmas. One of the problems is that my husbands parent s go so overboard, that we feel obligated to also or our children will think we are stingy. Maybe this is the wrong attitude for my husband and I, but, we always worry about disappointing our sons, because his parents give so much, that this is what they expect from us. It is very difficult. There have been many years that we were embarrassed about how much his parents gave the children.
