How often do you see your parents?

Do you see them alot less since getting married? Do you see your in-laws more than your parents?

Re: How often do you see your parents?

I see my mom like once a month sometimes, sometimes less.
We do see my inlaws more since we live in the same borough.

Re: How often do you see your parents?

i see them like once a month, and actually, when i saw my dad a few weeks ago, it was the 1st time i had seen him since the beginning of May They live at the azz end of Brooklyn though, and iver the summer, we've had something to do like every weekend, so the 1st 'free' weekend i had, i drove in to spend some time with them.

my IL's live in the same town as us... not even 3 minutes away. DH sees them alot b/c he goes over there for lunch, i see them every few weeks or so.

Re: How often do you see your parents?

My mom lives in FL so if I see her once a month it's alot.

But my Dad lives 10 mins away and I haven't seen him in three weeks. Sometimes months have gone by and I feel bad. But he can come here too and he doesn't!

Re: How often do you see your parents?

I see my parents at least once a week but I talk to them everyday sometimes twice a day....I see my MIL every few weeks and she lives in the same town

Re: How often do you see your parents?

My family is in NY, so I see my parents maybe 4-5 times a year. Before the baby we'd see the IL's maybe once a week, but now we see them 2-3 times a week. They live less than 10 min away.

Re: How often do you see your parents?

Re: How often do you see your parents?

at least once a week

same with IL's

Re: How often do you see your parents?

I see my mom less often and my IL's the same.

Unfortunately we see my IL's a lot more then my mom

Re: How often do you see your parents?

After we got married, we didn't see them very often at all, but since we've had the baby, I see my mom practically every day. I don't see my dad as frequently, but I still see him more than after the wedding.

My IL's we see less than after the wedding and it hasn't changed one bit since we've had the baby. A little disappointing

Re: How often do you see your parents?

I see my parents every Mon, Wed, Fri & Sun.
This is because I drop Jared off at his grandma's and I go to the gym. Sunday is my laundry day at their house.

As for the inlaws...maybe once or twice a month.

Re: How often do you see your parents?

My IL's live in the same town and we see them at least once a week maybe more. we are buying a new house and have to do major work before we move in so we'll be living with them (basement apt) for at least 3-4 months.

My Dad is disabled from a stroke (can't speak conversationally, left arm paralyzed and difficultly walking) and lives with my brother. I go there at least twice a week (usually on my way home from work). I pick up his mail because I do his bills, take him to all of his doctor's appts. and bring him a few pre-made meals as he can't cook.

Re: How often do you see your parents?

i wish i could see them more...they live in florida. i saw my dad at thanksgiving when they came up. i saw my mom when she came up for my shower

Re: How often do you see your parents?

I see my parents and in-laws about once a week.

Re: How often do you see your parents?

My parents about once a week (sometimes more) now that we are back in the same town.
My inlaws, about once a week and they live next door! Our schedules are so different, we rarely bump into them.

Re: How often do you see your parents?

when we were living in NY, I went for dinner once a week with or without DH. We were living with the IL, so I saw them everyday.

Now..I just saw my family for the first time since Dec.--8 months. My sis I've seen more often since she has come to visit twice.

My SIL that lives here...we see her when we get the chance to go to church and we hang out about 1 time a month

Re: How often do you see your parents?

I still see my Mom everyday. I still stay with her 2-3 nights a week because of my commute. The other days, either she stops by work to see me or I stop by the house.

Re: How often do you see your parents?

I see my parents at least a few times a week- they live 3 miles from me

Re: How often do you see your parents?

I see my parents 1-2 times a week. I would like to see them more, but they live about 40 minutes away. I saw them EVERY SINGLE DAY before the wedding, but that was only because we lived together!
As for JT's parents. I only go see them with him about once a month.

Re: How often do you see your parents?

Lately I feel like I don't see them enough - but I usually see them once a week.
My in-laws we see every couple of months - they live in Florida and come up a couple of times a year. I also feel like we don't see them enough.

Re: How often do you see your parents?

Since they are in NY and I am in FL I dont see them that often. I saw them in October when hubby and I were up for a wedding and I saw them last weekend. I will see my mom again this October because she's coming down for a few days by herself and I'll probably see them both again either Thanksgiving or Christmas. I dont know after that point.

In-law's same thing. I saw my FIL 2 weeks ago and he and his wife are actually on a plane right now and are coming to visit us for a few days. MIL I havent seen since September. I would like for her to come down for Thanksgiving if she is able to have the time off. She's head nurse of the ER and is always on call or running around doing something for work.

Re: How often do you see your parents?

not much, my in-laws live in FL, and my parents live in Europe, so unless they're visiting then no.
but I talk to my parents on the phone 2-3 xs a week, but the inlaws, rarely.

Re: How often do you see your parents?

My mom lives next door, so about every day. My dad is in PA..so about once a year.

I see my in laws about once or twice a month. They are both just a few blocks away too ( MIL, and BIL , SIL)
