[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Semantics is a game I don't play. For the bold, where I come from that's called good manners close relationship or not, you don't blow off visitors to "hang out".[/quote] the teens don't perceive this as a visit from the grandparents to THEM, but a visit from the grandparents to the parents I've had a somewhat similar situation. My exILs were very very hands-on with their first grandchild from infancy, took him everywhere, for weeks. With my kids, there has been 1 sleepover in 15 years...Now that first grandchild is an adult and off doing his own thing, and the grandparents are asking to see my kids. My kids aren't pressed about it though, as the grandparents are peripheral to them as teens. Even I, who live with them and raised them, would be lucky to have their company for an entire day...[/quote]
