In today's Ask Amy column, Amy Dickinson responds to someone who is exhausted by hosting holiday meals for relatives who never reciprocate the favor.
We do all of the cooking and all of the clean-up.They don’t call us or invite us to their house for dinner, ever. They don’t even call and ask us to meet at a restaurant.
We only see them when we invite them to share holidays at our home, yet they show up 15 minutes before the meal is set to be served and never offer to chip in with any clean-up.My husband wants to continue, as this is the only time his family tries to spend any time with us or our two children.If this is important to your husband, you could ask him to take on the responsibility for this meal. He could ask them to contribute to the meal, and to also help with clean-up.
He could also ask them to meet him and the kids at a restaurant – or go on an outing – instead of hosting at home.or send a letter to Ask Amy, P.O. Box 194, Freeville, NY 13068.
