DS & DD don't see their paternal grandparents much. There's a history but I just wanted an unbiased consensus:
DH has just got back from taking the children to see their grandparents. They'd left their Christmas decorations up to have a belated Christmas.
They told the kids that Santa came to their house because they (the children) were visiting.
They bought the kids £100s worth of gifts.
Is this 'typical' of grandparents? It's very different from how my parents behave so just trying to gage!
I am really pissed off about the Santa thing because:
- Santa only brings one gift per child in our house, the other presents are from whoever they're from (DH did have a word with them but the seed had already been planted)
- why didn't Santa leave gifts at their other grandparents?
- the insinuation of "if you go to grandparents, Santa visits.
