[quote=Anonymous]I think it depends on the personality of the grandparents, too. My kids had close relationships with both sets of grandparents when they were young, but now that they're older (tween/teen), they MUCH prefer spending time with one set over the other. These grandparents adapted to the kids age and do things with them that they enjoys such as taking them out to lunch, or to museums/movies. They also don't try to "parent" them like they other set does. They treat them more like young adults and have conversations with them. The other grandparents always try to teach lessons or explain things to them - it's quite tedious for the kids. (They also bicker a lot too so it's not pleasant for the kids to be around)[/quote]
