My In-Laws Skipped Thanksgiving but Sent a ‘Gift’ That Changed Everything”

My husband Ethan and I were used to being very close with his parents, Linda and Rick. They were young, fun, and more like friends than in-laws. But when we found out we were expecting our first child, they suddenly became distant — dodging calls, avoiding visits, and even locking up their guest room when we came by.We planned to announce our pregnancy on Thanksgiving with a little onesie that said “Grandma & Grandpa’s Little Turkey.”
