"Grandparents' Visit Doesn't Stop Toddler's Daycare Routine"

TL;DR
A couple who live 900 miles away from their son, his wife, and their 2 1/2-year-old granddaughter were offended when their son insisted their granddaughter needed to go to daycare instead of spending time with them while they both worked. The grandparents had hoped to take their granddaughter to the park, library, and out for lunch to get to know her better. However, the son's decision was final, and the grandparents were advised to respect the rhythms of their household. In another question, a guest with food allergies was advised to make discreet arrangements for their survival at a destination wedding.
