Why can’t MIL follow a very simple schedule?[/quote]
Grandparents will do whatever tf they want. They think your routines, food choices and rules are ridiculous. Even your mom thinks that, op.[/quote]

NP. That’s absolutely fine. They can be visitors, then, and not caregivers. It is 100% fine if they just want to visit and have fun, and not babysit. If they want to babysit, they will follow the rules.[/quote]

Or, you could relax. My kids are older now and out of the house, but [b]with the benefit of hindsight[/b] I will say that I was way too uptight as a young parent and grandparents generally know what they are doing.[/quote]

I'm the pp with the youngest who is a teenage and as with most things in life, this is so true. I'm actually embarrassed by some of the stuff I thought was so important when my kids were little. But to a pp comment, I actually do still have a stick up my a$$ about the importance of sleep. If I went back and did it again, that would be the hill I'd still be willing to die on. My college aged kid is so sick of me asking how much he's slept. :lol: [/quote]

yeah - extra candy is no big deal. getting sleep schedules off track so parents and kids have several nights of bad sleep when parents running rate of tired is already very high is a big deal.  so kids don't need a strict schedule but for those that do, i don't begrudge anyone wanting to prioritize that so that they're not trying to do their job and take care of their kids on several nights of awful sleep and crying[/quote]
