[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I think it's a cyclical thing. We have kids just as the grandparents are burning out of their hobbies, activities. Our family becomes their new novelty. It gives them a fresh way to identify and reinvent themselves with purpose. "I am a grandparent!!" The worst time is when the grandchildren are new and there are only a few of them in the family. Hang in there.[/quote] PP, thank you for this - it's one of the sanest and most helpful explanations I've read on this forum. I'm an NP to this thread but complain about my MIL in this forum from time to time. This really clicked with me and helps put a lot of frustrations into perspective. You are a wise soul.[/quote]
