You always have a choice and so do your parents and in-laws. At the beginning of marriage kids go back to their parents for yomim tovim and parents love to have them, but as parents age, don’t kid yourselves it gets harder for them. Why not invite your in-laws to you if you are ready to stay home? WE did it when we bought our own home and were ready to make Yom Tov on our own. We did not want to miss out on their company or cheat the kids of not having their grandparents at the seder table. Once I and my siblings were at this point, my parents took turns going from one of us to the other. Now it is MY turn, we now go to our kids for Yomim Tovim.
