When we went to Disney the first time with our kids we brought my mother. Our kids are 2 and 4 and we just worried we would need the help. We asked my mom b/c she is the laid back, go with the flow mentality.
Now that we have a feel for Disney we are doing it alone. DH and I discussed if we feel guilty that we are not inviting his mom this time. Honestly she is so negative and flighty it would annoy the crap out of us. Plus- we are movers and she just can't handle that with her knee. Thankfully DH and I are on the same page and have no problem speaking our mind and saying no.
Disney vacation are a lot of money so you do what's best for your family.
The one thing that helps us is that we try to be fully independent from the grandparents so not to feel like we "owe" the something. Ie. - daycare, constant babysitting, etc...
