[quote=Anonymous]Is she allergic to cats or dogs? If so, get a few. Start working on your excuse list to limit visits. You've got to work with your husband as a united front to set any boundaries. I highly recommend the book "Boundaries" to help learn good ways to handle boundary crushers. (It has some Christian references, but they're easily ignored if that's not your thing.) Make your list of things she has problems going along with. Any time she goes overboard in her reactions, just walk away and do not react or engage. It's HER problem how she feels, not yours. If she has a crying fit, you have to walk away with your child, and you can say, "Grandma needs some time out right now to calm down." [/quote]
