18 - Still Talking About… Low-Effort Grandparents

This week, Janelle is joined by another follower, Vanessa, to talk about something that comes up more often than people want to admit… low-effort grandparents.

What do you do when your kids want them at an event, like a birthday party, but your experience tells you they might not show up the way your kids are hoping?

They talk about the tension between protecting your kids from disappointment and giving them the space to form their own relationships, what it looks like when effort is inconsistent, and how to manage expectations without overpromising on someone else's behalf.

Their conversation also touches on navigating these decisions as a parent, how to handle the emotional weight that comes with it, and why sometimes the hardest part is knowing that you can't control how other people show up for your kids (as heartbreaking as that may be).

For more mother-in-law content, make sure you're following Janelle on Instagram and TikTok.
