    Weird how grandparents work. My parents treat my kids like their little angels, they want to take em on day trips constantly and always ask to borrow them for an outing. My wife’s parents have never once taken the kids or spent much time with them beyond family gatherings. I once asked me wife’s mom if she ever wanted to take the kids for the day and hang out, she actually said “Ugh I’m done with cleaning up after kids”. They love the kids but they just want them to exist and now interact with them much.
