[quote=Anonymous]This is a tough one. Odds are they’re asking you because they don’t feel like they have any other good options (since it’s a cousin and you’re backup to friends), so there’s no way to say no where they won’t feel on some level that you’re letting them down. That said, if you don’t feel you’re up to the task, it’s better to be honest about that than to set up a bad situation. You may be able to soften it if you’re honest about already feeling stretched thin with your kids and aging parents, but say that you’d want to be an active part of their son’s life if something happened to them to help him stay connected with the family.[/quote]
