[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have wonderful parents and in-laws.  We are the last with the grand kids. They are too old now to watch them for any length of time nor do we expect them to.

[b]I would let some cookies slide. Life is short. Kids will be fine.[/b] Now if they see them everyday it would be a problem.

My FIL is a retired dentist and gives little chocolate treats. As long as the brush and floss it is all good. [/quote]

Yup. OP, you [b]are[/b] a controlling person. Relax.[/quote]

It's not the sweets. It's the grandparents telling their grandchildren that grandparents are free to overrule parents because they feel like it.

That is a power play by the grandparents, completely disrespectful, and sets a terrible example and precedent that could come back to bite everyone.

It's not about the cookie. It's about those people being total dicks.

Shut them down, OP. You are the boss, no questions, no exceptions, when your kid is in the room. They can honor that or not be around. [/quote]
