[quote=Anonymous]OP here. This truly comes from a place of love, and a desire for my children to spend more time with their grandparents. If it's that they see them sporadically because we can't afford to take a family of five on an expensive and long trip, than I will accept that. I don't expect her to come help with our children (we've made the choice to live away from family; it's our responsibility to deal with childcare). I simply thought it might provide the right type of incentive to convince her to come visit us. I just don't want to give up on her. I could imagine a scenario, for example, where we fly her out to stay with us for an extended period of time (as we do with my mom). She'd get loads of time with the kids, which I know she would love. It's just about getting her over this little hump. I know it hurts my husband's feelings that they don't take the initiative to visit us, and then he feels guilty for not going to them. [/quote]
