[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When we have parents visit, we don't take off from work always. I try to go into work early and leave early. But that works because they're staying with us and they like a break too while they're in town. They sight see or relax while we're at work. We visit family around major holidays like Christmas where I get a free day of annual leave, so that helps expand my annual leave. I also work a flex schedule and get every other Friday off, which helps us get more 3 day weekends[/quote] We do this. We don't take time off when parents visit, which they don't mind--they love having the whole day with the grandkid, sightseeing, etc. And it means that they can come more often, because it doesn't burn our leave. We alternate traveling to grandparents for Christmas, do Thanksgiving with the ones we can take the train to, and fly out to see my parents for a week in the summer. [/quote]
