[quote=Anonymous]Set boundaries like you would with any grandparent--be direct. Talking separately: "Dad, I would really appreciate it if you would back us up when we're asking DD to do something. You don't need to engage, but just respect that we've asked her to, for instance, play by herself after dinner." In the moment, "Dad, we've got this." "Dad, we just asked DD not to do x, so please don't encourage her." Etc. It may not work well or at all, but it's worth trying before you pursue other options. [/quote]
