[quote=Anonymous] Glad I'm not alone! The only thing I have to add is be careful how much policing you do. Depending on how shameless the grandparents are, you might end up with sneaky GPs that encourage "our little secret." My niece and nephews are also local and older so I got a good heads up with this stuff. I watched MIL sneak my nephews ice cream and fudge (not the end of the world) but then encourage them to keep it a secret. NOT OK! DD is only 2 and a really good sleeper so the only vices I have to overcome are ice cream for dessert every time dd is with them. She always adjusts well to the later bedtimes. But when she is a little older, I'm going to have to have the secrets are bad talk with her, and with MIL. I have a better relationship with MIL than BIL/SIL and will talk to her about "some" spoiling being ok but if I ever catch her being sneaky or asking my child to lie or keep a secret, unsupervised visits with GPs are over.[/quote]
