[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]None, we live close to my parents.  They promised to babysit and help some (not every day but on occasion).  They never help and rarely see our child - maybe a few times a month for a few hours.  I really thought they'd be great grandparents but they act like they are generous by buying a tee shirt while they go on vacation and saying that they buy all the wardrobe off that one shirt (hmm.. no, that just replaces the one you lost when he visited and how you lose a shirt is beyond me).[/quote]. I think this is part of what I fear with option 2. I have no doubt that option 1 would be very involved but worry about the uninhibited berating that goes on btw the grandparents and the drug exposure. I want to give LO stability but I think opt 2 would only see him AT MOST 1x per month for a couple hours at a time. And, I’m afraid his Aunt / Uncle would still only make time for him 3-4x a year (we’re staying about an hour from them now for the last 10 weeks and have been able to see them 2x bc of their schedules).
