[quote=Anonymous]My mom likes coming out to see the kids and spends as long as she can while she's here. I can see that my dad misses her during these trips, and he could come too, but they've got a dog and a life back home, so it's not too practical. It improved when my dad starting make trips of his own to come see the grandkids. Sounds like that's not what your dad wants - but maybe your dad needs to find his own thing that he can get into so he doesn't resent your mother's time with you & your kid. I see this with a lot of empty nesters - it takes awhile to rebalance how much time is couple time and how much is independent/different activities time. Maybe he hasn't found his "me time" activity yet.[/quote]
