[quote=Anonymous]I explain to family members that my parenting rules and only my parenting rules apply to my child. If they disrespect me in front of my child, we both leave. Much like a toddler in a restaurant, this only works if you actually follow through. Now that my child is old enough I have to be able to answer questions about the terrible people. I generally say something like "I agree grandma was hurtful. I'm sorry you had to see that and I'm so proud that you do not think it's ok to treat people unkindly. I don't think she knows how to be different." [/quote]
