[quote=Anonymous]I grew up with a set of grandparents I saw at most, once a year. We couldn't afford to go to Florida where they lived, and they came to NY about once a year. They'd stay with my aunt for a few days (a week? I don't know) and come to our house for dinner - so we'd see them for about three hours. They never wanted to come see my bedroom, play any games with me, watch me put on a performance for them, play the piano for them, nothing. It didn't really bother me at all - that's just who they were. It wasn't until I was in my early 20's when my grandfather died and we went to Florida and I jokingly said something like "So this is what their home looks like!" and my father pulled me aside to whisper the other cousins had been there before and already knew. It was only my sister and me who'd never been there. [/quote]
