[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My parents live in Seattle and we usually go once a year and they come once a year. That’s not too much to ask of either party assuming finances are set and there’s a decent level of understanding between both parties.[/quote] It’s significantly more challenging/and expensive for a family of four including two working parents with limited vacation time and kids bound by school schedules to travel than it is for 2 retired people who can travel at their leisure and take advantage of off peak fares. Assuming grandparents are in good health and have the financial means it seems logical that they should be doing the majority of the visits.[/quote]
