Recently had confrontation with PILs about age my dd to stay over with them. Apparently they expect that five is a reasonable age, however as they live 150 miles away I feel that this is probably too young particularly as daughter wakes most nights (she is currently four) and comes in bed with us and also they have only ever babysat for us the once. I feel that dropping her off for a week is not fair on dd, as much as she enjoys seeing them I feel that until she is older (approx 7ish) and is happy to not have her parents around then really they shouldnt expect otherwise - as though it is a grandparenting right?
Although I am being made to feel that I am penalizing them for living a distance away
