they visit after years as they have a job & can’t take a leave every other day to visit them while girls being a housewife can go see their parents along with kids ofcourse after every few months.

What type of jobs do these guys have? I don’t know any guy who has a professional job and does not get at least 2 weeks of vacation every year…some even more (My husband gets 7 weeks). And of course, in the U.S. most workers are off for several days during Thanksgiving and usually a week or more during Christmas.

And when the guy wants to bring his parents from back home so they can live with them & see their grandkids, girls have a problem with that too & try to make their visits short.

Ummm…is this thread about guy’s parents living with the him OR being able to visit him? Why can’t the guy bring his parents over for a visit so they get to see the grandkids?

And what is your definition of a “short” visit? I don’t know any woman who complains if the in-laws come over for 1-2 weeks (my in-laws usually stay with us for a week when they visit).
