[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m confused. You talk to your parents daily and have your older kid FaceTime them a few times a week but you don’t do anything like that for the other grandparents? Seems like you could very easily drop one of the phone calls and FaceTime sessions with your family (and still be talking to them 6 days a week!) and call/FaceTime your in laws once a week.[/quote]
But it sounds like her parents are much farther away and can’t visit. I think the better solution would be to just invite them to come to you occasionally. [/quote]

But her toddler can FT with her own parents just not her in laws because she hangs up the phone too often.

OP - you have to let people know what you need/want or you'll never get it.

If you want them to come visit for an afternoon, or hang out at your house so you can get your hair done or whatever, you need to COMMUNICATE with them.  Directly to them. Not through a third party. If you want them to visit with your kids so they will have a better bond, you need to say "they miss you, can you come for pizza?"[/quote]
