[quote=Anonymous]OP here. My DC is actually a bit older (young teen) and last year felt badly that there wasn't much time to hang out with the grandparents. DC thinks it's better to have them come another time too, when we can go to museums and spend more time talking. When they come for birthday parties, it is a bit of a balancing act for DC to hang out with friends and GPs who want undivided attention. I haven't done a good job setting boundaries in the past. In trying to be a good DIL, I do take pride in being a thoughtful and generous host. My intentions are not heartless - we want quality time with them. But I see that it may come across that way to them. I didn't have GPs growing up so this is new territory for me. [/quote]
