[quote=Anonymous]Too often the issue is the messaging and related expectations. Some new grandparents just want to come "visit and see the baby." Nine times out of ten they view themselves as visitors/guests. Guests generally don't cook, grocery shop, do laundry, take out trash. Good guests do pick up after themselves but not everyone is a good guest. New moms understandably, want anyone who visits to "help" the family in helpful ways. Communication, ideally beforehand, is key. Don't assume that what you or your own parent would do is what others will do. [/quote]
