Grandparents are hit and miss

Some grandparents are not responsible enough to watch kids (like we talked about in the other thread about how old people become crazy eventually)

They don't listen to the parents requests (they think they know better how to raise a child)

They aren't always located close by, or live out of town

They might be too old and can't move around very much anymore

Or maybe your kids are just still too young to be left with them for more than say one night

In our case, we are lucky when it comes to grandparents helping with babysitting, but it's not like that for everyone.
