[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"Barbara, Karen, we know you love Baby, and want to spend time with him. But the bottom line is, you don't respect our parenting choices, and we can't trust you. When we leave Baby with someone, we have to know that our rules and wishes will be followed. These are rules and wishes we base on recommendations from pediatricians, from the latest parenting guidelines, and from our own experience with our child. If you want to babysit, you are going to have to go by our rules. That's final."[/quote] +1 Explain cause and effect clearly. My parents and ILs aren't perfect and do things I wouldn't, but certainly not with regard to fundamental safety (solids for a 2 mo, baby powder). If they don't know things have changed, fine, but they have to be able to listen when you tell them that they have. [/quote]
