[quote=Anonymous]I pretty much felt like the parent and not parented when my oldest was 2.5 and I had a 6 month old as well. I was mid 30s and all 4 of our grandparents had just died too. I put my foot down and required holidays in my home. I planned the schedule, planned the menu and my parents just showed up. They just showed up from then on out. The holidays just shifted to my kids being the center of everything versus the middle generation of Dh and I. And then my dad started asking for our help nonstop and they needed more help. I still feel like the shift happened when we got to host holidays. [/quote]
