[quote=Anonymous]As the PP suggests, call her out on it. Ask her why she’s always telling you that you “spoil” your kids. Ask her if she would like a stream of unsolicited feedback. Ask her if she feels jealous of her grandkids and let her know that’s how she’s coming across. And ask her if she’d prefer that you share fewer details about what’s going on. Then definitely share fewer details and manage her a little more. And push back in the moment. “I’m not spoiling her, Mom. She likes the other ones better so we’ll get more use out of them, so it’s worth the extra money.”[/quote]
