[quote=Anonymous]OP, I think your situation is fairly common. I spend more time with my parents, so my kids are closer to my parents than my in laws. Like you, I like going to my home time. I like how my dad cooks for me and my mom watches my kids so I can catch up with old friends. It's just easier and more comfortable for me. I also have a son and I expect if he marries his kids will likely favor their mom's parents for the same reasons. In our case though, no one is keeping score as both sides have other grandkids and are busy with their own lives. I kind of wish my in laws cared more, but they just don't. My FIL (divorced) hasn't seen our youngest for 5 years. That is entirely on him and DH as that's a relationship I stay out of. [/quote]
