[quote=Anonymous]My MIL lives two hours away. My DH's sister and her kids live in the next town from my MIL. Whenever we visit, she arranges for the cousins to also be there. They are much older than my kids (older teens versus elementary schoolers) and naturally just take up more attention. She also sees them all the time. Occasionally I'd like my kids to visit with their grandmother and have special outings that don't also include the teenagers, but I don't know how to convey this diplomatically. It feels like my kids get short shrift a bit. DH is doesn't care one way or the other. I've never said anything but I'm wondering if I could ever tactfully bring it up. [/quote]
