[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP, and I have no horse in this race, but grandparents are definitely more important than sports or phones. I realize I seem to be the only person who feels this way, and that's okay. [/quote]

Of course grandparents are more important than sports or phones. That’s why OP’s son and his family spent a VACATION with her over a BREAK. That was the family time.

[b]Then OP decided to park it on their couch for two weeks, and not lift a finger. She didn’t offer to make pizza with the kids, an activity, while her son and his wife went out to dinner. She didn’t offer to take a granddaughter out shopping for a birthday gift for a friend, then drop her off at a birthday party, and pick her up. OP didn’t offer to drive grandson to a sports practice or game, and stay and watch. OP didn’t volunteer to do a special craft or project with any of the grandkids. She didn’t offer to take them on an outing. She didn’t offer to be helpful and integrate into their life in any kind of helpful or interested way.[/b] My mom, dad, MIL and DIL have done ALL these things, and more.

[b]Instead, Little Miss Muffet sat on her tuffet, demanding to be entertained, even after she was included in a vacation.[/b]

Are you getting it yet? [/quote]

None of this was in OP's post. We don't know what she did or didn't do. [/quote]

Riiiiiggghhhhtttt. I’m sure OP would have left that important context out of her original post. I bet you’re right. :roll:[/quote]
