[quote=Anonymous]First, don't expect them to change. Second, your house, your rules. They need to know this up front before they buy the next plane tickets. "Dad, I need you to know that I can't drive you everywhere on a whim - I work and have to do the baby care when I get home, so you'll have to fend for yourself, OK?" Then when they get to your house: "Remember we had this conversation before you left? I can't drive you anywhere tonight, sorry. You can walk to the store today, or wait until I do the grocery shopping this weekend." "So we're going for a walk with DS, want to come? No, we're not driving, DS wants to run about. OK, you can stay inside." [/quote]
