[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I set expectations right up front, and all frequent family guests know the drill by now. I will plan and cook dinners (or DH cooks or we get takeout) but breakfast and lunch are on your own. I have an open, fully stocked kitchen and I expect you to help yourselves and generally clean up after yourselves. [/quote] I would pick some areas like this and set some expectations. On helping out with kids you could ask but know that once the grandparents hit a certain age they often find taking kids out, even to a playground, a bit daunting, especially if it is cold out. Mine helped my brother extensively but were a bit too old by the time mine came. [/quote]
