My children are close to my parents, because my parents have a good relationship with me and my DH.  They do not have a close relationship with DH's parents, because MIL wants a relationship with DH, and kids, and wishes I would fall off a cliff.  We have cut back severly on that relationship.

Three very common and annoying questions I get:\n\n"Why don't you miss your parents?"\n"When are you going to have children?"\n"You don't drink any alcohol at all?? Why?"\n\nThere are a few subjects that I just don't want to talk about at all and people tend to ask too much about them and not get the hint when I avoid answering. Can't people understand that some things I just want to keep to myself?

I am a father and I have large family. The first think I do is to retreat in my privet room and stay there for sometime alone. I need this time to re-energize. You did not ask what the second thing I do so I will not answer. LOL

I have no friends, no relatives living near, my son went to spend thanksgiving with his dad.\nTo tell  you the truth, I just wouldn't have the courage to do it either.

Honey sometimes that is what adults do when they are not happy. It has nothing to do with you or anyone else in the family..........

Here is arecent one.  My mother in law has been ranting and raving about throwing me a baby shower since January (Im due at the end of this month)  \n2 weeks ago she tells me that she doesnt have the money anymore and she would rather just take me to the store.  So I was dissapointed, but I had to deal with it.\nSo my sister in law ends up inviting some relatives over from my dads side of the family ( I am not even close with them, she just planned the event so that I would get some seriously needed gifts) She never met Danny's mom so she didnt even think of inviting her.  it was a small get together with under 10 people.. no big deal but a great gesture!\nSo long story short, the monster in law is not speaking to me now.  Mind you this was a surprise shower I didnt know until I walked in... not only is she not speaking to me but neither are his 2 sisters.  I could have the baby any second and I feel like this tension is not only unecessary but really hurt ful and mean. \nThere is my story!

losing my children.  I am not as great a housekeeper as I'd like, although my children are happy.  So the house is sometime sacrificed.  Oh well.  I also have a disease that can be disabling.  Maybe that's why my house can be cumbersome.  But I try not to focus on it.\n\nHave a lovely day!
