I am a mum of 2 sons and a grandma of 2 granddaughters (from ds2)
Just before ds2 and his wife announces they were pregnant with dgd1 we moved an hour away for our retirement. We felt this would be a great move for us and isn’t so far that it would effect seeing our family.how wrong I was!
Both of my sons rarely visit. This is particularly hurtful from ds2 as I would love to see my granddaughters more frequently. There is always an excuse as to why the can’t come.
We are also never invited over to either of their houses. If we call and ask what they are up to, we get told how they have a super busy weekend and have so much to do. If we do stop by at either of their homes, both DILS act like we have massively overstepped and make it really awkward for us.
We just want to see more of our sons and grandkids. How do I approach this without rocking the boat any further with DILS?
