My ds has 2 brothers, both married with dcs. Pils feel that we all don't see enough of each other and that there are not enough times when all the family are Together.
Therefore they have decided that every month or so we are all going to
Go out for Sunday lunch together. Now I
Like Sunday lunch and I get on ok with the rest of the family, but between us there are 4 dcs, aged 2.9, 2y, 21m and 4m.
I find it quite stressful going out with ds (the 2yo) for a meal as it is. He will sit happily I'm a high chair for max 45m on a good day but then twists and whines to be out and I'm finding the idea of formal Sunday lunches with 4 young dcs a bit fraught? Unless pil are on some kind of mission to I still better table manners into the gcs?
I would rather go on a day out/ picnic as a way of spending time together, so might suggest this when the weather Improves.
Iabu to think pils idea may turn out to be a bit of a disaster? Or am I being negative?
