[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"So you're imagining that we'll be dropping the kids off here to spend a week at Camp Grandparents in the summer? Because I only see one bedroom, and then the bunk room for the kids. I think they'll probably like that when they're little -- not sure about when they're teenagers, but I guess a few good weeks are worth it to you, right?"[/quote]

OP here. They don't want to watch grandkids without us, so I doubt that's the plan. We fly my parents in during weeks that preschool is closed instead. [/quote]

If your parents are at your house whenever preschool is closed does that mean that you never spend the holidays with the in-laws?

We spend every other holiday with the inlaws. My parents actually celebrate at my house by themselves without us every other year. We need the most help with daycare schedules around Christmas. [/quote]

You fly your parents in to help out with the daycare schedules and then on Christmas Day you travel somewhere with your dh and kids to see your in-laws while your own parents stay at your house?  How long do you spend with the in-laws?[/quote]

Yes. We only typically spend 23-25th at the inlaws and then come home. And my parents are upset about this and complain. I'm an only child, so there's no other family for them to go to. I'm just trying to be fair to all. [/quote]

Why on earth wouldn't your parents just come along to your ILs? [/quote]
