[quote=Anonymous]I think what you’re doing is the right approach- and the same one I took. At that young age kids don’t understand nuances of adults and trying to explain that grandma is a liar or manipulator now is not a good idea lol. I always did it in stages of age and the older my kids got the more they understood. I wouldn’t outright lie to cover, but putting things in the best light so your child is happy is not a bad thing. Sometimes being the bigger person for your child is the best - but it’s not to say you can’t call out your mom. Stand up for your DD and express your disappointment with your mom - and how it’s affecting YOU.[/quote]
