I don't want people to think that the point of this post is complaining about them not babysitting my kids instead of me looking after them myself. It's that they are really involved with my husband (due to him working for the family business, and them being quite controlling ). It's about the fact that they seem to act like the kids don't exist now. I really feel like it's as if the novelty has worn off.

My kids haven't seen them for a month , and only spoke on the phone cos they phoned their dad , and they happened to be in the room . My 3 year old expects to go to theirs soon because they gave that idea when the were on the phone. They seem to make false promises to the kids . I have an issue with that.

I do understand that 2 little ones are hard work, but they could visit with my husband, or even make a phonecall or facetime so that's no excuse for no contact.


Oh it's not because they aren't asked. They don't make arrangements with us, they give us commands . They aren't shy in coming forward, especially fil.

I do feel like husband should ask , as they are his parents, if we were to ask. I'm sure they'd say no to me out of principle

I didn't think that at all it doesn't come across like that. Kids need stability and people letting them down isn't what a good parent or grandparent would do. Bet when they are older they will moan the kids never come to visit.
