[quote=Anonymous]Totally depends on the grandparents, the parents, and the kids. My parents can take our kids (7, 5, and 1) for as long as we'd be willing to leave them. There are a couple of things that work in our favor: my parents are great at different things, so they can divide and conquer (which is how my husband and I do things, too). My dad gets up early with the kids because he's up at 6 every day. My does a lot of the parenting stuff - gets them dressed, fed, bathed, teeth brushed, and gets them to sleep, but she's not tired because she sleeps in. We get babysitters if we are gone for more than 3 nights. during the week the kids are in school and we have a nanny. My kids are also good and pretty easy. The baby goes to bed at 6:30 and naps twice a day. My older ones will really go to sleep whenever you put them to bed. As your grandkids get older, you may want to take them for longer, but for now your limit is obviously less than 10 days. [/quote]
