[QUOTE="katya02, post: 309047, member: 2884"] I agree completely. You raised your children; you work; your 'down time' and any other time you need come first. You aren't the Mom here. Taking children on errands is less convenient but can be done ... I took four children with me everywhere, as husband was working incessantly and I had no family support at any time ... taking just one would have been a vacation! :) You are being more than generous in helping out your daughter and her family - don't feel guilty about setting some boundaries. Better to set them now than to be taken for granted on a permanent basis when daughter finishes and finds full-time work as a nurse. [/QUOTE]
