[quote=Anonymous]I agree OP. Parents should do what they feel is best without the judgment. Both mine and husband's parents are local. All four love the kids but my parents have health issues. The once in a while times they watch the kids, it's just for a few hours and the kids will primarily be watching tv/on their iPads, which is totally okay. I know they're fed and in a loving environment. When his parents watch them, it can be for overnights as their home is larger and they're more active and healthier. Yet there are definitely times when none of the grandparents are available, so we have outside care, and it's great too. Have hired her for date nights, all day weekend outings, help on sick days and a couple overnight getaways. My kids are loved by multiple people who genuinely want the best for them and I'm so happy for that, whether they're family or not. [/quote]
