[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Definitely a little envious. My parents try their best but for various reasons can only help but so much. They have a great relationship with our children though. I feel like we have the worst of both worlds with my ILs- they moved back only 5 minutes away from us and take, take, take but have little/no interest in our children. I'd greatly prefer for them to live far away because we reap zero benefits from this situation and they feel so entitled to our time and energy. I have friends whose ILs dote on their children and offer to babysit all the time and it's frustrating because we have basically the opposite- constantly asked to do things for ILs with zero offered in enchange (would be understandable if they were elderly or something but they're young).
