[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I just assume she doesn’t care too much about them and seeing them on holidays is sufficient[/quote] Don't be this way[/quote] This might be the very reason she's not interested in providing free babysitting or in hanging out with your kids. Your attitude is showing. She's her own person, with her own stuff going on. It sounds like she's attentive to your kids at holidays/birthdays and isn't interested in sitting through another round of music recitals and ball games.[/quote] It seems I have not highlighted enough that we don’t ask her to babysit save 3x per year(!). We don’t need her childcare and we never have. It is a Freudian tell however, that posters hear “free babysitting” and not connecting with a grandchild in this. That might be the issue.[/quote]
