they are throwing an open house for SIL, a come as you go, drinks, food everywhere, 200 people.
they cannot/will not grasp why we won't bring the boys.
Their argument "well everyone else is bringing their kids."
yes, because everyone else has an almost 5 yr old with the walking skills of a 12 month old, the cognitive skills of less than that, and the attitude of a terrible 2. And an almost 3 yr old with an attitude almost as big as he is, who doesn't walk yet wants to and is in this I will climb and destroy mind set.
DH is so annoyed. He shut the convo down with "well everybody else doesn't have disabled children."
after 5 years you would think they could at least grasp it. These aren't borderline kids, they have wheelchairs, go to school for multiply disabled children, don't talk, don't walk, etc. I am so sick of trying to get them to see that their only grandkids are not what they expected and they need to change their expectations. But I guess they would have to see the kids for that. They live 15 min away and haven't seen the kids since New Years day, and they only work minimally. They're only in their 50's.
