I see my grandparents at least once a week. Do you guys visit yours on a consistent basis?


When they were still alive, we’d see each other during birthdays, holidays, and visits to the doctor’s office.
Then, we moved to the opposite side of the globe. From then, they all passed-on 1 after the other, with 1-2 designated family-member (s) to represent us all at the funeral.
By the time I could finally visit them in their grave, more than a decade had passed… and it was my mother’s parents I had paid my last respects to. My father (ever pragmatic) didn’t feel the need to visit them again, since he traveled back & forth to see them while they were still alive and witnessed their funeral. Hence, my paternal-grandfather I have not seen again for almost 20years. Meanwhile, I was able to return to the country 1x before my paternal-grandmother’s passing, almost 10years after I’d last seen her when we moved. I have not paid my last respects to either of them at all.
To live close enough to visit them while alive is a great gift. Cherish it, for not all are blessed to do so.
I used to spend every weekend with my grandpa growing up
He passed away when I was 12.
I never really had the chance to meet my grandma she died when I was 1.
Also my father died when I was 7.
I visit their graves regularly to pay my respects. Unfortunately I moved, so I see their graves maybe once every 6-8 weeks. I feel guilty. I try to clean and place flowers as often as I can.
Grandparents are such a blessing, they are wise, and willing to teach. I love spending time with the elderly and listening to them
Not often enough! I'm trying to change that, though. It's usually a couple or a few times a year. We live about an hour and a half apart and my work schedule can be iffy.
I absolutely love visiting them though and always have a great time. They're some of my favorite people in the entire world, and visiting them just takes all of my stress away.
Unfortunately, my grandparents on one side have both passed, though. One when I was a baby, and the other in my early teens. I wish they were still here to visit.
When my maternal grandparents were a live we lived with them or close to them so I saw them all the time. My paternal grandfather was heavily achololic and I never felt save being around him. My paternal grandmother I tried to write and call occasionally. We had very different view points on a lot of things especially my father. As she got older my father's family first made contact difficult and then cut it off.
When my grandparents were alive - I could only see one cause the other was in China - I saw her every other day in the summer and not at all in the winter months since going to her house involved walking a 1-2 hour trail and I did not have bus tickets. When she moved to an old folks home in another city my dad would not let me see her so I never did.
I see my grandparents once a week minimum, my Friday nights are to play Phase 10 with them

i see them when my mum has money to fly back to see them, their is 4 of us and the tickets cost like £6000 altogether, soo yh it depends, the pattern has been 10 years we went in 2006 for the first time ever, 2nd time 2016 ,4 years later then recently 2019, we came back like 5 weeks ago.
My grandparents have all passed away but when they were alive we did visit them often until family drama happened so I never got to see my Nan and Pop before they passed away I wasn't even allowed to go to their funerals
Damn, I’m sorry to hear that.
I live with my grandparents. They are 80 and 76. I am one of those guys who can't get a good job or a bachelor degree. So I live in my grandparents basement (not literally the basement) and educate myself at home.
Man, you can do anything you want. Just need drive and hardwork.
I try to visit my grandma a couple times a year (aside from holidays/birthdays), but my grandpa lives in another state all by his lonesome and the only time anyone sees him is when he makes short noticed/unannounced visits to certain people.
Because of my dad's job we lived abroad a lot during my youth. For me it was normal to go a year or 2 without seeing them, but it made the visits that more special. Even when I moved closer (still a short flight away) it was only once a year I really saw them. Not a day goes by when I don't wish I could have seen them more. Same goes with all of my extended family.
I visit my grandparents a few times a year. They live in a different state so unfortunately I don't get to see them very often.
I used to visit my grandparents once every year when they were alive because they were in the ol' country. Ideally, I'd would have visited them once every week or once every month depending on how far they lived away.
The last living grandparent I had passed away a few months ago.
My paternal grandparents passed away.
I visit my grandma (my mom side) once every 2-3 years because she lives in a different country. Our meeting is always very happy at first and sad whenever I have to leave.
Just visited them for my grandmas 89th birthday! Im so thankful she's alive but she recently got an eye infection and I went to her house to help give her meds and watch to make sure she's okay
I don't see my grandparents. They are abusive people who were horrible to their daughter (my mom) and then tried that shit with me.
After a major altercation occurred a few years ago, we don't see them anymore.
I don't remember when my grandmother died. I should. Anyway, the last time I saw her was the night before she died.
As for my grandfather, he was here for a week or so, last year.
All my grandparents have passed away but I saw them more when I was younger and saw them less and less as I got older.
Mine pass away years ago but before that I got to see them one last time both of them. But I lost my grandpa first then my grandma.
R. I. P. to all
Lovely Grandparents🙏😇 even mine👴👵❤
They all passed away by now, but when they were still alive I stopped seeing them at a young age and never visited them since.
They live 3 houses down. I dont go to them but thye come here a few times a week
My grandmother is an angel and like a mother, she helped me raise my son
I basically live with them at this point.
I live with my mother, but I spend most of the time either studying or on my grandparent's house.
I haven't seen them in years
Probably since I was a kid
Almost never since I dont live close to family. I haven't even seen my parents in like 8 months now
Once or twice or month.
Planning to go see my grandma today, she and my grandpa are both on their last legs, she might not make it past this week.
I voted B because my grandparents are in different countries
Everyday usually, my mom had me when she was young so my grandparents are quite young, they’re literally my second parents 💖
I've lost them all sadly, used to visit my Gran as often as possible even when I moved away, she'd be one of the first people I'd visit when I returned home, my other 3 grandparents died either before I was born or shortly afterwards.
On very VERY special occasions, they live pretty far but the last I visited them was in 2015.
I lived with them for 13 14 years i think and well then they went poof
A couple times a year, will be less now that I moved
I have 2 grandparents left. If one was nicer I’d see her often. The other one is in NY and I don’t see him.
My maternal grandparents passed away but i enjoyed
the years that i did have them. My grand-dad passed
August 25 1996 and my grandma passed August 9 1998.
I had one grandma that died in early 1994. She made the best (dry on the inside) dumplings and chicken I've ever eaten!
I see my grandparents at least once or twice per week
Only on religious holidays twice a year even i am not a believer. Or if they got sick or sth.
If they were still alive I would try at least two times a week or more cause I really loved them with all my heart n soul
I live in another country I haven't seen them for nearly 10years I have 2 grandmas and 1 grandad left
My grandad passed when it was my 6th year of living in UK they live in Philippines
1 died 3 days before i was born, the other has lived with me for my entire life
Twice year we visit them then 6 month they visit us. When they were around.
Last of my grandmother just pasted little over a month ago.

A few times per month. Sometimes once, other times three times.
