[quote=Anonymous]Op I feel like you’re hearing from a lot of folks that don’t like their family much or have family who wouldn’t be helpful. It’s true that in these scenarios it’s not great I’m sure. But it sounds like you have a really supportive family you are close with. I have the same and am lucky that my husband’s family is also in the same area. We moved back to the dc area to be close to both families and I’m grateful probably weekly. We are at one set of parents right now so we can work while daycare is closed because of the snow. Are there some added complications and responsibilities at times? Sure. But being nearby vastly outweighs that. And there is just no way our friends with kids could come close to the support. So, take what folks are saying with a grain of salt as it’s pretty dependent on the family and sounds like you have a good one. It’s also been absolutely amazing for my kids. Their relationships with their grandparents are incredibly close and it’s really special. [/quote]
