Jealous grandparents


Our son is blessed with two sets of loving grandparents! He's the first on both sides and is so very loved! Both sets live between 45mins and and hour-ish away which is nice because we see them often and they're always willing to help. Now again, remember - very blessed, they love him a ton, AND they get along! Awesome, right?! Yes!!! But... Both sets (let's be honest, mostly the grandmothers) have a passive aggressive thing from time to time of jealousy. Paternal grandparents recently asserted themselves (which we appreciate) and said once a month they want to do an outing with us and our son. They've been such fun outings! I never flaunt them in front of my parents because that'd just be rude, but I also don't hide that we do these things. And cue passive aggressive jealousy, which I understand. But as parents to a toddler with our own life stuff happening, we don't have the desire to have to manage that. Any thoughts, advice, words of wisdom?! via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/2LCe0Oc
