Dear Queenie,
My son and his wife just had a baby boy, my first grandchild. I want to see the baby as often as I can for as long as I can, and even babysit now and then, but I don’t want to intrude.
Queenie, what is a reasonable schedule for visitation?—New Grandmother
Dear Grandmother,
There is no set answer to your question. Talk to your son and daughter-in-law and try to work out a schedule that is comfortable for all of you. It will help if you can stay on the best terms possible with the baby’s mother.
