[quote=Anonymous][quote]Well, I don't usually ask them for work reasons (my husband has a lot of flexibility) but they do turn us down quite often if we ask for personal/social reasons. They keep an active social calendar booked way in advance but seem only willing to cancel their activities for SIL. [/quote] I think that's a very relevant difference. My parents have active social lives, which they would not cancel in order to babysit so that DS and I could socialize. But they would have no problem with canceling a social activity to watch the kids if we needed to work. [/quote]
