[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your kid has friends or plays sports then these weekends will evaporate soon. My kid had a game every weekend in elementary school and usually at least one or two birthday party or play activity scheduled. Once the birthday parties and play activities turn into sleep overs then those days that could work for the grandparents would end anyway. They need to realize that the school year is completely different than summer. People without kids do not understand how busy kids are during the school year. [/quote] +1. Do they live close by? Ask them if they would be willing to spend time with him during the day on teacher workdays and snow days instead of the monthly sleepovers. We have games and/or activities almost every weekend. A weekend away is hard during the school year because they don’t want to miss out. We try to plan school year grandparent visits over holidays and between sport seasons since they are not local.
