[quote=Anonymous]We see my inlaws once or twice a week. The minute we're through the door it's a barrage of "Where's my baby? Let me see my baby!! I want to hold him!! I need my baby fix NOW!!! Oh, get him out of that thing (Ergo)!!!" - *yank* grabs baby from me, sometimes ripping him right out of the carrier.

Then, when she is holding him, it's all "let's go upstairs, just you and me, you've had enough mommy time, we can have so much more fun without her, I'm going to let you break all mommy's rules, and when you're older I'm going to take you to the museums and the zoo and we're going to have so much fun without mommy, mommy's so boring, you see her all the time..." ad infinitum.

It drives me mental, and believe me, I'm really a pretty laid back person. I recognize she thinks this is fun, but how can I make it stop? She literally snatches him out of my arms with a "mommy holds you too much, time for GRANDMA!!" every time I see her. So far I've just reacted with a curt smile and haven't said anything, but I'm really thinking I need to draw the line.

Ideas? [/quote]
