[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, sorry but you sound incredibly ungrateful and incredibly unrealistic about the dynamics of young kids. Fwiw, we don't have a single family member who is well enough to take care of our kids, and in 10 years of parenting, we've never had the opportunity to leave them with anyone. I can't imagine getting annoyed at grandparents who are willing and capable of taking a gaggle of toddlers for multiple days simply because the kids fuss at the goodbye.

Here's the bottom line:[b] Your kids are babies, essentially, they are going to have tantrums when they have to make transitions. That's what little kids do. Even first-graders. [/b]Deal with it - find incentives to get them out quickly or just roll with the antics a bit since it's not really a big deal. Don't blame your MIL or deprive your kids (and yourself!) of grandparent time because it comes with a little drama.[/quote]

this is BS. My kids have no problems with transitions (no do OPs kids at other homes). I am not saying it's because I have figured it all out but it is simply not a fact of life that all children have will have this issue. [/quote]
