[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I like my in-laws, but the main reason I keep my children in touch with them when DH is deployed is because if I had a son or daughter deployed, I would really appreciate their spouse or partner letting me see and keeping up with my grandkids.[/quote] OP here. But I'm not keeping the grandkids from them. If anything, I really need the help, but I'm not going to get on my knees and beg. I told them months ago to visit whenever. I had a close family member die two weeks ago and it was hard not crying in front of the kids and I paid a babysitter to take them out to play for the worst of it. I also was in a wedding party last weekend which was about 16 hours of babysitting that I would have loved help with. My kids love the babysitter, but I'm sure they'd love their grandparents visiting mroe. [/quote] You've already invited them. You've fulfilled your obligated as a DIL. They have chosen not to come. This is on them.[/quote]
