[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why just a few times? Go to them. Make sure they aren't always having to come to you. Travel some weekends and have a meal or two with them. Stay in a hotel.[/quote]

What if you can't afford flights and hotels?[/quote]
[b]Or if they don’t want you showing up every other month?[/b] Better to embrace the new phase of your life by developing your own friends, interests, hobbies. Anything you had to put down or didn’t have time for when you were in the thick of it, now’s the time. Anything you thought, that sounds interesting, try it. Take a class, read (or write!) a book, there’s so much out there to explore. Bonus, it will make your time with your kids more interesting for you both.

This. Love my parents, have no appetite for entertaining them every month.[/quote]

I see my parents more than once a month, but it is exhausting. Isn’t that something, though? The people we say we love so much aren’t the ones we prefer to spend our time with. I get it, it’s ok, but it does make me sad that my kids may feel that way about me. [/quote]
