[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]None of my grandparents were involved in my life. I think as long as you're open with your kids and supportive of your kids, it should not matter. YOU matter more than her.[/quote] Same. I was the youngest child of “older” parents. My kids also have had limited involvement with grandparents due to age and distance. It is not ideal but it sounds like your parents are more than making up for it. Maybe switch the dynamic and think about what you and your husband can do to make your MIL last years pleasant. Maybe that involves your kids, maybe not. I’m really grateful for the time I spent with my parents during their last few years. [/quote]
