[quote=Anonymous]My siblings and my spouses siblings all married early and had kids early. We are both the youngest and married late and had kids late. Our kids' cousins are all 16-20 years older than them, so they are almost a generation unto themselves. They get spoiled silly by everyone, aunts, uncles, cousins. Everyone spoils them. Additionally, all of our extended family lives far away, Florida, Texas, California and Oregon. A little indulgence doesn't hurt. We tell the kids that we can bend our rules when visiting with our family, but when we get home, we go back to regular rules. It sometimes takes them a week to "detox" from the constant overload of everything, but we get them back on track. Spending our time with family policing what they eat and do while everyone else is trying to find ways to covertly bend the rules is just not a fun way for anyone to share time with the family.[/quote]
