[quote=Anonymous]OP, you're way off base. My mom is very involved and helpful, in that she comes over one evening per week to spend time with my kids. This obviously helps me because I can stay later at work or go out to dinner or attend a PTA meeting without dragging my kids along -- but my mom does this because she likes spending time with my kids and she does it on her schedule. She will also take them overnight in a pinch, for example when I have a weekend work trip. This is great and I'm not minimizing it at all, but it's a far cry from expecting or asking her to drive my kids around to activities or babysit one while the other has an activity. Generally speaking, adults don't run errands for other adults unless there is a real need like illness or physical inability. I wouldn't expect that to change just b/c the errand happens to involve one of your kids.[/quote]
