Whew. OK, Mark, let's take a sec and think about this.
First, forget all about how you got to this point, whose fault it was, who invited who, and who is "right". (As Dr. Phil says, Would you rather be right or be happy?)
Now, I want you to step back and ask yourself one question: Does going to her parents for Thanksgiving bring you closer to your goal of saving your marriage, or push you farther away?
(And if you "go there" and reply that your goal isn't necessarily to save your marriage today, then I have to ask you a different question: What IS your goal, and are you moving towards it?)
