[quote=Anonymous]We’re in a similar situation with my in laws. Things have been slowly unraveling and FIL has some next health issues that i think are adding stress to the household. I’m the parent always accused of helicoptering, but the kids finally had enough and so no more overnights with the grandparents. Have you asked your kids how they feel about the trip? My kids cane home from their last visit (last summer) and declared that they weren’t doing it ever again. We’ve kept it subtle, just turning down every offer saying the kids don’t want yo be away so long, but I’m sure they notice that we let the kids go to MY parents’ house. If the ask, we’ll be happy to explain to them why the visits have stopped, but we didn’t want the fuss of some big declaration I’d say that in our situation and in yours, the parties aren’t capable of learning or changing their behavior enough to make the trip work. So any big discussion would really be a wasted effort. [/quote]
