[quote=Anonymous]Go ahead and watch your new grandbaby. I'm a mom who paid for childcare for both my kids, because our parents aren't close enough to watch them for us. It would be nice to save the money, but we understood that we would need to move to make that work. I don't begrudge my brother who still lives near my parents for getting free help, nor do I blame them for spending that time on him and his kids. If I'm going to give you any advice, it might be to work out more regular time to see your other grandkids, just to develop/maintain a close relationship, not necessarily as childcare. Visit them for lunch or dinner once a month? Offer to take the kids for a weekend on occasion?[/quote]
