Bad about what? ..giving back a little to the parents that raised her husband?
Come on.. PP.

Family relationships are not always easy but you need to keep a bigger picture
OP. Parents raised kids, they put all their elbow grease for years.. decades,
they give it all just as you are doing now. The very minimum is to give back
some family time with the grand kids. It is really not too much to ask.

Drama? Oh, well, nobody is really truly drama free  :lol: 
and then again, you think you are a peach they might not think so,
it is all very relative.

By law grandparents do have some rights to access to their grand kids
law seems to be much more embracing then adult children and their
spouses.  :lol:

One thing to remember, as people get older, they get more cranky
and whinny, not only because they get older, which in a way is 
reason good enough.  :lol: 
But! also because they are getting sicker, and less mobile with time
and gradually they realize their time is limited.
Also your kids will grow out of grandma zone soon and will
be so much into their own life that they will have a very little need
for grandpas.

So on one hand, yes, you can live your life however you want
and be very judgmental and  eye for eye type of person,
or you can be a little more understanding, forgiving and 
embracing and let your kids access to their grandparents
a little more.

At the end of the day, you are giving your kids a gift of
connection to the older generation, who not only have something to
teach and lots of love to shower but who also love your kids
more then you in most unconditional way ever.

Your husband is a bit spoiled brat talking to his mom like this.
Have some heart and imagine how she must feel. One day
you will be in the very same situation and some DIL of yours
will act just like that towards you. How will it feel?
