We had the 2 college kids come back for Thanksgiving and they'll be back for Christmas. Not the exact same situation but somewhat close.
Just as grandparents want the kids to come and accepting a certain level of risk, I feel we are doing the same also. It seems we are saying, it's okay for immediate family members to congregate but not extended.
I don't where the line is, but honestly appreciate grandparents really, really wanting to see the kids and grandkids regardless of risk to themselves.
(But I would draw the line at having an extended family trip to Disney)
