[QUOTE="ksm, post: 698633, member: 12511"] We have already told both girls...we are NOT raising a third generation. 1.5 years... Then husband and I can try to have a few years of real retirement... Travel... Volunteer... We will definitely set guidelines... Only babysitting when we want to...not being responsible for raising another child! But be a real grandparent. Spoiling, and handing them back over. That is what I regret most...our granddaughters lost their only "real" grandparents and their "parents" and we had to be the ones who set boundaries, made them do homework, kept on them to get them school. But we couldn't be the fun grandparents any more... Someone had to parent...and we stepped up. But we both lost out on the relationship we used to have. KSM [/QUOTE]
