[quote=Anonymous]8:34 pretty much nailed it. I do think all the "family first" people must have younger parents/ILs. My parents were great when we were growing up, but over the years they have lost their tolerance for normal kid behavior. A two-week visit would be a nonstarter with them. In OP's place, I'd have been most bummed that this came up now. If we'd know in advance that my FIL was going to burn out, I'd have suggested that I leave a day earlier with the littles so DH and the older kid could have a full day of bonding -- play golf, go to a movie, have a steak. But we're driving distance from our parents, so it wouldn't be a big deal to depart separately.[/quote]
