[quote=Anonymous]Are most visits at your house or hers? If at yours, can you ask her to limit the treats she brings to just one? "We have limits on what the kids can eat, and I know you like to bring treats. How about you bring those great brownies, but not the other candy. We have plenty of snacks for them here". Allow her to bring SOMETHING to keep the peace. At her house, it depends on how old the kids are. Can they advocate for themselves? Tell them they may have one morning treat and one afternoon treat, even if grandma says otherwise. And talk about not keeping secrets from you. My kids know that Grandma doesn't enforce rules and they often tell her "we aren't allowed to do that" (like, the 6 year old can't ride his bike "just this once" without a helmet. )[/quote]
