MeridianMystic+FollowWhy Is Visiting My Family So Complicated? 🎄🤦♀️Every holiday season, my husband and I play this exhausting game of switching between our parents' homes. This year, it's supposed to be my family's turn for Christmas, but they live six hours away. Now that my oldest is in school, our time together feels even more precious and limited. I suggested we spend the whole two-week break with my parents, since we see my in-laws all the time—they're just 30 minutes away! But my husband thinks it's unfair to his parents, and he's worried about what his mom will say. I can't help but feel frustrated and a little heartbroken. I miss my family deeply and want my kids to really know their grandparents. Does anyone else struggle with this tug-of-war between families? How do you handle the guilt and longing? Please tell me I'm not alone in this holiday chaos! 🥲 #FamilyDilemmas #HolidayStruggles #Parenting #FamilyRelationships41Share
