[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. As I stated in the OP of course they don’t “owe” me, but most of my friends have 3+ kids and local grandparents help a ton, like driving to sports practices or keeping the younger while the older has an activity, etc. My friends all assume my inlaws are the same and they are not. How do I put an end to the questions without just saying “my inlaws don’t really help.” My own mother (now deceased) lives in my hometown but would absolutely have been like my friends parents. Feel sorry for my kids - they got a dead grandma and a dud grandma. Some kids get two awesome grandmas. It’s sad.[/quote] Branch out in the friends department, then. Most of my friends are not local to the area and we don't have grandparents to help us. My parents live in Europe. The worst you can do to yourself is whine and think you've got it hard. No, you've got it easier than most, my dear. [/quote]
