[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have fun stuff like wrapped figurines with you when you visit or when they visit you. It can be your bonding "thing" with your nephew. I had a babysitter when I was little who always arrived with some cool new activity or toy to play with. Then she took them back home with her which was fine. I always knew she'd come back with something neat the next time she babysat. Stop offering advice. [/quote] This, but ask your SIL's permission to play with those things with your nephew. You don't know his individual needs and some kids are more prone to put things in their mouth, choke and make poor decisions. She will tell you if it is appropriate for her kid even if you plan to supervise and take it home with you. You need to respect her role as a mother and expert on her child and never, ever give unsolicited advice.[/quote]
