[quote=Anonymous]We have solved this problem with Facetime. When I am making dinner or the kids are having a snack, I call up my parents on Facetime and chat with them and they chat with the kids. It doesn't take any time away from things that we have to do because I can be fixing dinner or loading the dishwasher at the same time. If I am reading a book to DS, my parents can watch him on Facetime. Sometimes we don't even talk much, but my parents just watch our family life go on. I requires a parent who is willing to answer Facetime pretty regularly. My inlaws will answer sometimes, but never stay and hang out. That's fine, but they are less close to the kids. [/quote]
