I love my DSC, who are 25 and 23. I have known them for about 12 years and get on really well with them. They are busy establishing their careers in London and we don't see them very often, which is understandable.
DS, 6, loves them to bits and gets very excited when they are here. The awkward bit comes because they just want to chill out and relax after a hectic work week. Today DSD arrived at 12 pm, very tired. Over the course of the afternoon, DS has asked her to play several times and she is just not interested. He has asked her for the last 20 minutes to play "Sarah, play with me" and that is what I have heard lover and over again. I have been busy cooking so was not able to distract him but I do find it painful to hear. Poor thing, my heart just cracked.
This is what usually happens. What, if anything, can I do?
