But it's kind of a sore spot right now because they don't ever come to see us so my wife wants to just cut out the Christmas visit now too.

This would be my serious answer and that's on the high side. I'd say usually

Roughly the same here. We go for one of the major holidays. When we lived closer

Depends on how far the travel is, but once a year is normal.

In laws are few and are all over the world, so they visit us infrequently.

Every flipping week

well they're dead so that travel is restricted, at least to me

Nat Gas Man

Not necessarily restricted but certainly discouraged... at least by your friends

For my in-laws that live in TX (we live in Utah) 2x times a year.

2 or 3 times a year. They live 2 hours away.

Everyone's experience will be different, but here are some thoughts:

What do you consider a full day's drive?

Baron

6/19/17 2:06pm

6-7 hours.

CougaReb

6/19/17 3:11pm

Okay my full day drive is 12 to 15 and up to 20 depending on my mood.

My in-laws live in Orlando, so at least there is stuff to do when we visit.

Man, just talked about this last night. We haven't seen her parents in two

CoogsWin

If it's farther than a 4 hour drive, once/year max

jaromp

6/19/17 2:09pm

Once every few months.

SweetBabyG

6/19/17 2:09pm

If it's a full day's drive away, then 1-2 times per year

KingDave

6/19/17 2:12pm

At least once a week, they're cool and it's a 5 min drive

Ydaho

6/19/17 2:23pm

As frequently as we can.

Blue Plate Special

6/19/17 2:59pm

Used to be once every 2-3 months when we lived close, now 1-2 times per year

buffgato
