[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tell him he doesn't have to hug, in her presence. His body is his. Teach him to high five or wave a hello. If their relationship isn't close, that's the natural consequence to her behavior - maybe she will learn, maybe not. He might warm up over the course of the visit if she doesn't push; try explaining that to her.[/quote] +1 DH should tell his mother that you don't force your son to touch anyone. It's his body and a bad example to set ("we don't want him to think he has to touch grown ups because they ask"). Maybe if it's framed in those terms she will really that she's acting pretty terribly. I would be horrified if either grandma did that to my daughter.[/quote]
