[quote=Anonymous]My parents are in their early 70s and are great travelers. My mom comes up to bring my 4 yo son to his therapy appointments each week and then take my older kids to school the next morning (she lives 2 hours away). She visits my brother and sister every 6 weeks or so - they are each a (separate) flight away. She usually ubers to their houses from the airport unless they insist on picking her up. Then she travels internationally twice a year or so and does various weekend trips with her partner and/or girlfriends. (My dad is passed but her partner is an even better travel companion than she is in terms of making plans, keeping track of things, navigating, etc.) This is making me feel very lucky. For all her foibles, she knows being a working mom with young kids is much harder than being a retired person with occasional health difficulties and tries to accommodate all her kids and grandkids.[/quote]
