[quote=Anonymous]Well, while I think other posters are being rude to you and likely don't have a clue what this is like, I do agree that there is basically nothing you can do and you definitely can't ask her not to bring it without coming off like a lunatic. My ILS, both of them, do the same thing when visiting. And they come from way farther than Atlanta. So I totally get where you are coming from. Reading a book on an obscure card game while he melded into the couch was way more important than reading to our DD, which resulted in him telling her multiple times/days over the course of the visit that he wouldn't read to her and she was bothering him. Eventually the kids will figure out where they rank and they will behave toward their grandparents accordingly. For now, I enforce a strict (for everyone in my house) no electronics/toys/books at the dinner table rule.[/quote]
