[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your son trips and falls and she blames him, you can say, "Don't worry, sweetie. Accidents happen and everyone trips at some point. Let me give you a hug to make you feel better." In other words, just say your message and ignore grandma's. If yours contradicts hers, so be it. Having his back and raising him your way are the most important things. As he gets older, you can explain that grandma has her own way of looking at things, and your way is sometimes very different. He should respect grandma but listen to you, and come to you if he ever has questions. You can also gently call her out at the time, like "oh, Larla, everyone trips, don't they? It's not about blaming, is it?"[/quote] Absolutely perfect.[/quote]
