[quote=Anonymous]Today's kids have tons of activities. They can't just skip them. My daughter's youth orchestra allows two absences per concert season, and those are usually taken up in sick days. She has stuff all Saturday, and we drive long distances for her stuff on Sunday. Because of that, kids really value their downtime. It's exhausting having to come home after a busy day to entertain relatives in your home. Kids need to recharge in their favorite ways - usually with devices, chatting with friends. You are a relative stranger in their lives and it's a burden to them to adjust to you. They would rather spend time with the friends they see every day at school. it's a huge imposition to be there when the kids have school, unless you're helping out by making meals, driving kids to activities, etc. Please stop doing that. You were lucky enough to spend time with them at a resort. Count your blessings, OP and stop whining. [/quote]
