[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, it sounds like you and your dh had unusually close relationships with your grandparents. One set of mine was dead, the other set elderly and somewhat dsyfunctional. My cousins spent a huge amount of time with them because their parents also weren't functional. It's too bad the grandparents aren't following their parents leas, but there is nothing you can do. There are plenty of people out there without grandkids who would be willing to fill in if you trusted them to do so.[/quote] What she described is not UNUSUALLY close. Maybe it is for you. That does not mean her in-laws will change but it does not make it unusual.[/quote] What OP described with her own grandparents is absolutely unusually close. OP your expectations are unreasonable. You're chasing a fantasy. Let it go.[/quote] Lots of grandparents are like that. I feel bad that her in laws are not , but what she described is NOT unusual.[/quote]
