I could be way off here, but my guess is when you tell him they are coming it is more of a question and a begging from you.

"Grandma and grandpa are coming Don't you like them? Don't you wan't to play with grandma?"
Then if his says no and starts to fall out you scoop him up with hugs and kisses and  say" Don't worry grand ma and grandpa  are so much fun mommy will be back soon or nanny will be here tomorrow"
Confirming that he has a reason to misbehave and giving him permission to do so. Not on purpose , but you are doing it.[/quote]

OP here and I doubt I am doing that.  I am always happy to see my parents and always act even happier when I tell DS why are coming.  I also remind him that his nanny will be back.  And again, he is not misbehaving during the day - he is just not happy.

He simply prefers his nanny at this point.  [/quote]
