[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When you move away from your parents, it's your job to visit them and your obligation to pay. Whether it's your in laws or your own parents. That's the rule.[/quote] LOL no. Retired people with no kids should do the bulk of the traveling. My parents come to me as often as I ask, generally 2-3 times a year (they're cross country). My ILs come more frequently for shorter visits (they're in NYC). We go to my parents once a year, but not since 2019 due to covid, and to my ILs' generally twice a year. But really, we have what they want (grandkids) and not the other way around, so it is in their interest to make that happen. We love our parents, but we have two jobs and three kids and thus five schedules to coordinate and we're not going to make the effort all the time. In my view, the onus should generally be on the grandparents to put in the effort.[/quote]
