grandparents miss the kids twine: When my stbxw moved away i didn't relize that i was not the only one that wouldn't see my kids as much, since she has moved my dad hasn't seen the kids once. I only have them every second weekend and want that time with me and them guess that is selfish on my part, my dad lives a couple hours from me and he rreally misses them alot. I don't want them growing up not knowing grandpa so i will have to invite him here in two weeks when i have them again. As for the x's parents they used to see the kids every week and they havn't seen them either for close to 4 months now. I told them to phone the X and see if they can have them for a weekend that isn't my weekend I hope she goes for that. Has anyone ever heard of visitation times for grandparents cause i think they deserve it to
Re: grandparents miss the kids tara: In most states, grandparents aren't legally entitled to visitation, and rely on the mercy of their kids and ex-kids-in-law.
In your case -- you can certainly control when your dad sees your kids. Inviting him over during your weekend is a good thing...you'll still be with your kids, but he'll be there too.
As for your ex's parents, all you can do is suggest, or if your ex won't budge, you can bring the kids to visit or invite the ex in-laws over to visit with them on your weekend (although I certainly understand why you wouldn't want to).
