[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I do offer to help my son, but she's the one typically "doing things" when I offer. She likes to cook and make holiday meals, etc. So I'll talk to him, but he defers to her. If I offer to clean to him and she overhears, she says no. I put this thread in this forum for a reason. Please, I'm looking for advice from my contemporaries.[/quote] How old are you? I'm 53 and while I have no grandchildren, yet, I am certainly old enough to have them and I've been a DIL. Stop worrying about cleaning your DIL's home. She is not inviting you over to do that. You are there to visit with your grandchildren, your son and to have a nice dinner. Play with your grandchildren. If you don't know what to do, give us their ages and we can suggest some fun things for you to do with them.[/quote]
