[quote=Anonymous]My in-laws are visiting. They are great people but have very, very different boundaries from me. I also am prone to wanting to explain my parenting decisions but I've decided I am done with that. Can you help me remember/say 1) That's my decision and I don't need to explain it to you (i.e., I don't want you to play makeup with my 2- year old) and you need to respect it. 2) That's none of your business- I don't need to give rationale or explanation. I don't want to be rude nor confrontational, but I do want to cut off conversation and curb my own instincts to say more than I should. ideas or good phrases?[/quote]
