[quote=Anonymous]They're going to get upset no matter what you do. There's no way to break it to them gently that you appreciate how loving they are but that you prefer distance. I think you should tell them *before* they sign a lease/buy a place here that you're going to be very busy and won't be able to drop everything for a week out of every month to spend time with them. Tell them that you want them to be aware of this before they sign a lease and wind up disappointed that they see the grandkids only one day out of the week they're here, and suggest that perhaps they'd prefer to spend their money in other ways (like saving up to take the kids on a nice vacation once a year). It would be really hard for them to show up that week every month and discover that they can't see you and the kids.[/quote]
