My kids would spend the entire Summer in nola with my family from ages 3 until covid. My 15 y/o is asking to go spend July there. They absolutely love it simply b/c it's a different way of life from here in NC. We absolutely loved it b/c it also gave us a break.

That's awesome. I spent about a month with my grandma each summer. Grandpa died when I was a toddler. It was great. Small town in the country. Got to know a lot about my family roots and get to know my great uncles and great aunts. It was fun. Grandma would take me out to lunch almost everyday and cook dinner and then I got to spend time with my uncle when he came home from work.

She’ll be gone for months? How about saying No to that?

I spent two weeks every summer at my grandparents. My grandpa put my arse to work. Cutting grass, hauling dirt. He liked junk so he, my cousin and I went pick up a refrigerator in Mermentau in his 1972 Ford Courier pick up. My cousin and I had to stand in the back of the pickup and hold this heavy arse fridge while he drove back to Jennings. No straps, no nothing.
That little truck struggled and we couldn't even make it up the Mermentau River Bridge. He had to coast back down and bring the fridge back. He was pissed.

What’s the youngest acceptable age to send your kid to their grandparents for the summer? Asking for a friend.

My little girl goes to camp in TX for four weeks. This is her 3rd year and she started when she was 8. No phones, but there’s an app where they take pictures and post them so at least we can see what’s going on.
It’s a little rough on us because we miss her but she would stay all summer if we would let her. It’s her favorite thing in the world.

My kid has done 2 weeks at ages 3, 4, and 5. I'd have no problem adding a few more weeks on when he's older.

I went to summer camp in Maine for 6 weeks every summer from 7 to 14. I loved it and I'm sure my parents enjoyed having alone time. They went to Europe one summer, lots of golf trips etc. It's good for the parents to have some free time away from the kids

We used to do this when our son was younger.
It sucked to begin with and we would miss him.
Next day we realize we are by ourselves and get to do things we used to do when we were younger.
and we have a good time.

Let me tell you how lucky you are. I don’t trust my kids grandparents enough to leave them alone for more than a day or two.
Be appreciative that you could trust two people to mind your kid for a summer. As a father of two with zero help, you have no idea how envious I am. I just think about all the things I could do and enjoy without putting up with their bullshite. Would I miss them? Absolutely! But it would be a welcomed break from the stress
