Do the grandparents ever get competitive about babysitting?

Let me first say, that DH and I are very lucky to live near our parents. They have been a huge help watching our 2 boys, and we've never had to shell out a penny for babysitting. BUT... the grandmothers are starting to get a little catty about equal opportunity babysitting.?

They got in a bit of a tift yesterday (ironically at our MOther's Day brunch) about who's turn it is to babysit next. Just wondering if any other moms out there deal with dueling grandmas!?

  • When an infant was involved yes, now that they actually have to entertain them unfortunatly no. Don't get me wrong, they love them, but I hire my trustworthy, energetic, highschool student when I want to go out for more than an hour past 5:30. :)
  • Nope, the don't babysit.Sad
