[quote=Anonymous]You will have to work with both parties. Remind your child that you are all going to be trying really hard to eat well at Grandma and Grandpa's house so there will be no wrong when you say enough on the treats. Allow some ( A little extra compared to what you've been doing at home so he "gets" that this is a treat but not overboard) and then be firm when it's time to stop. Same with them - be firm when it's time to stop. If they don't cooperate, get up and put it away. Remind your mom that you understand her feelings that food is love and you are allowing some treats but cannot and will not allow DC to suffer because she is trying to love him. Tell her she can find another way![/quote]
