[quote=Anonymous]First--I think it's important to let go of the idea of what a "good" grandparent/parent relationship should look like. There are a zillion different ways to be a family, and that's completely fine. Maybe there's some old hurt in the relationship. Maybe your DH and his mom are just not the type of people who need to be in touch frequently. That's out of your control. What is in your control is supporting your husband with the relationship he is trying to have with his mom. yeah, a two-hour drive with a toddler wouldn't thrill me. But if this is a monthly (or less) effort, isn't it worth it ... again, just to support what relationship your husband wants to have? [/quote]
