[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s interesting reading the two different opinions on this thread.
I never spent the night at my grandparents house. The whole thing sounds weird to me.
Why is a 70 something trying to fill their emotional wants with a 12 year old? It is so gross and manipulative. [/quote]

Um emotional needs? Some of you are really effed up.

Are you trying to fill your creepy emotional needs when you want to spend time with your kids?
Or maybe it's because you grew up with no extended family.
But many of us did and have great memories of sleepovers with the grandparents. My grandma taught me how to cook and garden we watched the old movies and stayed up late. It was fun.

The grandma in this scenario is trying to guilt trip and pressure to have GD overnight when GD does not want to spend the night. Completely manipulative. 
My kids are young so they have to spend time with me - but I won’t emotionally manipulate them when they are adults. 
So your parents didn’t teach you to cook?
Mine taught me, and I’ve taught my kids. [/quote]
