[quote=Anonymous]Do you kids have a relationship with their grandparents? I have been doing things similar to you for the sake of the relationship and just this year had the ah ha moment that my ILs "want" a relationship in theory with their grand kids - but don't actually engage with them when we visit [for example will be playing words with friends with another grandchild during our visit] Given this - I gave up. I am not going to try and create opportunities b/c they will say they want them but they really don't. It is much healthier for me to spend time with my kids that is healthy and relaxing for everyone then for me to be stressed and frustrated. I would just tell her - thanks for hosting we need to go - you forgot about an important apt and you will catch up soon. Lots of love ....[/quote]
