[quote=Anonymous]So sorry, OP. It's a hard situation. My dad is kind of like this too and it's really hard for me-- hearing loss, bad judgment, denies that anything about safety has changed since 1983, will not listen to pediatrician or CDC information, and shows no respect for the fact that we're the parents, not him. You just have to draw a hard line and stick to it. Give up on the idea of doing it "gently"-- there is really no gentle or non-insulting way to say that his parents are unfit to care for children. Focus on doing it calmly. Repeat over and over again "No. I will not leave the children alone with them." No, no, no like a broken record, until he catches on.[/quote]
