[quote=Anonymous]Very jealous. My in laws are an hour away but they can’t be involved very much due to health issues. My parents live 800 miles away and we see them 4x a year. When we are w my parents they play w the kids and are engaged (go to kids activities, walk kids to school, etc) but they just cannot be that involved in Most aspects of our lives since they’re so far away. A lot of our friends and our kids’ friends have local and involved grandparents and I can’t help but be jealous of that—mostly from the kids’ perspectives. I know my kids would love to have closer relationships w grandparents. It makes me feel sad for my parents and in-laws, especially my mom and MIL, bc I know they’d love to be closer and more involved too.[/quote]
