Our child started primary school in reception last Sept, due to our work patterns my mum and dad who work part time after their retirement kindly offered to collect our child from school and take him to theirs until I pick him up after work. Edit to add they are separated so it's not a joint home but their individual homes they take him to, occasionally if they are both off they will take him together to the park or whatnot as they still get on okay.
My parents really look forward to this and the time they get with DS after school for an hour or two. They are very close. Often it will mean just one of them does this as the other may be working that day.
My husbands older son also goes to this primary and is in Y6. Since our child started my husband has made a few comments about my parents collecting SS as well (and even his ex has too which I find extremely cheeky!).
Previously SS was in after school club but has since been allowed to walk home from school instead (both parents live within walking distance) until we or his mum get home. However, DH and his ex are always a bit nervous about this and I know would prefer him to not have to walk home.
My parents aren't really close with SS, my mum knows him sort of and they do get on, my dad has rarely met him.
Aibu to not want or expect my parents to collect SS as well and think it's fine for a Y6 child to walk 10 minutes to home instead.
He occasionally is collected by grandparents on mums side which is obviously absolutely fine and no one would expect them to collect our child too!
