[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP never came back so either a troll her she didn’t like our response. [/quote]
OP here. I’m here, but I was trying to remain neutral.

I’m the weekend sports parent/sibling. My sibling has been making a big deal over our parents attending my child’s (6) games on Saturday mornings. After the games we have lunch. It’s the only day of the week we see my parents. My sibling’s child’s games overlap. We gave a standing invite to my parents on Saturday, and they choose to come on Saturdays. My sibling (who enjoys the 2-3 times a week babysitting/time spent with grandparents) is complaining that they spend every weekend with us. We don’t force them, but they are taking it out on us. I just wanted to be sure I wasn’t going crazy. Your replies landed well. [/quote]

I assumed you were the weekday kids’ parent from how you wrote the original post. Your sibling is being unreasonable, OP. They clearly are “getting more” from your parents with multi-day babysitting each week. Your sibling seems very entitled and reminds me of my own sibling. For some people it’s never enough. [/quote]
