[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I’ll try to facilitate more. At some point time snd age will call the shots. There are cultural issues here, too. Things were easier when grandparents had 30 grandchildren and could barely keep track of them. Now the only two grandchildren get an unbelievable amount of attention that borders on unhealthy: one time all those crazy  kids annoyed the old folks- now, it’s reverse. [/quote]

A week long visit 6 times a year isn’t unhealthy or an “unbelievable amount of attention”. You being this dramatic about it probably isn’t helping. [/quote]
NP, I would not be able to handle people staying in my house for a week at a time every other month, especially if the visits created a stressful/uncomfortable situation for my nuclear family. Sucking it up every 3-4 months, maybe, but every other month, oh hell no. [/quote]

That’s your issue though, which is totally fine and everyone can set the boundaries they want. Declaring these grandparents have some kind of unhealthy obsession with their grandkids is a bit much. They sound like normal old people to me. [/quote]
