[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My ILs do not second guess decisions that my husband and I make about our kids. If one of my kids were about to go outside in a t shirt and the grandparent knew that it's chilly outside whereas I did not know then s/he would probably suggest a sweater, etc. If I responded with "he'll be fine with the t-shirt" then that would be the end of it. If I told DC that he could leave the table and play my ILs would not dream of chasing him down to feed him. None of these issues have ever come up though; my relationship with my ILs is harmonious. I think in some cultures and families the oldest generation expects to be the respected authority on family matters.[/quote] :roll: OP, I think this is pretty typical of grandparents, and certainly not a cultural thing as PP suggests. My lily white from the boonies MIL is like this.[/quote]
