Question: We're 70-year-old retirees. Our children want to ship our three grandkids to our lake house for the summer. I consult two days a week and need quiet; my wife finds the idea of hosting all summer exhausting. How do we respond?
Answer: As a retiree, one of the most rewarding things to do with your time may be to bond with your grandchildren. After all, they give you the best of both worlds — adoration and love without having to be in charge of the tough decisions or deal with the daily struggles of meal negotiations and bedtime.
