[quote=Anonymous]The grandparents have done their job as parents before with you and DH, so why would they want to do it again. They should be able to just enjoy their life, doing what they want, whenever they want. Don't expect them to be parents to your children with your high expectation, especially if your children are far younger then your siblings. It's tiring/noisy for them. Sometimes grandparents doesn't like the way the in- laws treat the grandkids and their kids (DH/DW). To harsh or too much. Remember the DH/DW are their kids, of course they are the apple of their eyes. Mistreatment by the IL(spouses) doesn't sit well with them. The best way is whenever you with them, spend time with them doing things that they want, so they feel included and not as babysitters only. Treat them nicely with respect, in front of your kids, and your kids will enjoys it, and treat you better in the future.[/quote]
