[quote=Anonymous]OP, in case you come back. I'd ask myself, 1) how dangerous is it really? 2) does learning the activity enrich my children's lives in any way? 3) does exposure to this activity and the culture of the IL's surrounding it really threaten to damage the psychic well-being of my kids? i.e., turn them into snobs? If the grandparents are willing to take the time to teach the kids something that they may enjoy and which may enrich their lives, I'd be inclined to allow it. Even if I were excluded. It would hurt my feelings but I'd let it go for the sake of the kids. I'm divorced so I have a lot of practice with focusing on what is in their best interest regardless of how it makes me feel. The only thing that would stop me from allowing it is if I truly had misgivings about the danger to my kids, physical or otherwise (snobbishness). Good luck. [/quote]
