[quote=Anonymous]Please help me gain some perspective here as I'm a bit upset right now at how my mother is behaving when it comes to one of my kids. We're visiting and staying with my parents and she's completely taking over the care of my 3 year old (minus the dirty stuff like baths and potty business) while mostly ignoring my infant (who cries whenever she picks him up so there's that). She insists my daughter sits near her at the table and completely took over meal supervision (granted, I'm still super busy feeding my infant), when she falls down she tries to take over as chief dispenser of boo boo kisses (I swoop in faster than she does though, yay for youth!) and she entices her to sleep in her room/bed instead of mine and I'd be the mean mom if I said no.  I feel like I shouldn't mind this because we only visit them twice a year for a couple weeks each time but it really bugs me a lot. Please slap some sense into me. I guess I wouldn't feel so annoyed if she asked me first but she just does as she pleases. I don't want to be a rude guest either.[/quote]
