[quote=Anonymous]I'm old although I'm not a grandma yet, but my sense from some of my friends is that parents today are much more likely to have a "parenting philosophy" and to ask grandparents to watch the kids but: don't feed them this, don't say that, etc. They used to sell those t-shirts that said things like "feed them sugar and send them home" and "just spoiling my grandchildren" and things like that, but I think often parents may have really specific expectations -- no juice, no TV shows, etc. I think particularly as you get older, that's probably difficult -- to get onboard with a 'parenting philosophy' that didn't exist when you were raising kids.
