[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You are buying the wrong Grandma Diet Pepsi! (Hint: so nice stuff for the people who are nice to you.) My parents are the same way - [b]I can totally see my dad telling my kids to pipe down so he can watch Jeo[/b][b]pard[/b]y. The thing is, we are not local. So obviously my in-laws, who love the kids and make our lives easier and are willing to travel to us, see way more of the kids. It’s just the way it is.[/quote] +1 My parents live 2-3 miles away, they are always around and they also are pretty high maintenance. I don't get the complaint about the coffee and Diet Pepsi. When you're at the store simply stock up. I have a shelf in my pantry with stuff my parents like (I'm lookin' at you, Ma, with your Wheat Thins and Tab) and it is NBD. I also will personally take down any child who touches that stuff cuz it is there for the grands. I will do the same if anyone eats the last of the Pinwheels I keep on hand for their Dad.[/quote]
