[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DH and I just took care of two toddlers for ten days. While we had a "third hand" for three hours in the morning, it was exhausting. While the children are loving and adorable, it was non-stop except when they were asleep. Even then we slept with one ear/eye open. We both agreed that it is not something we'd do again...we have two other kids with children....but we know we will be asked. What is the max other GP's are willing to do? What should their children expect? My DH said "I'm OK with two nights but never again!!". [/quote]

We do not have grandchildren yet but my children already know that we are not, never will be, their babysitters.  Our kids, we took care of them smd hired babysitters.  Their kids smd they can do the same.  As soon as youngest if out if college, we downsize to a two bedroom with den condo in an adult community.

Why on Earth did you ever allow yourself to be used so shamefully?[/quote]

Grandparent of the year here.  :roll: I'm glad you made sure no one can ever visit you.

Some people love spending time with their grandkids. I can't wait until I'm retired with grandchildren to love.[/quote]
