[quote=Anonymous]I think this is fair and the grandparents sound awesome. I have a similar situation where I work and my parents do not help regularly during the week but do attend games/special performances and babysit on occasion. My local sibling has a SAH spouse and my parents take the grandkids for a morning a couple times a week. So far there are not a lot of conflicts on weekends, but if my niece or nephew had a big event (recital or championship game or something) I would expect that my parents would go to that. I have one child that has a game every week and one who has two big performances a year so and I would feel differently about missing a big performances than a weekly game. I would just make it clear to your parents that if they ever need to miss a game you are happy to find a different time to see them, not because of your sibling but just because I know my parents feel a lot of pressure to make things fair so don’t want to add to that.
