[quote=Anonymous]Why can't you continue raising your child in the loving environment because of MIL comments? Your child will be able to learn from both approaches. And who knows, maybe when he grows up, it will be his grandma's philosophy that will give him strength and support in a hard time. Remember, one day your child will be away from you to rely on your hugs and kisses. MIL is not going to change. Explaining to her your approach in raising kids is not going to change her views, but will cost you time and nerves. Your child doesn't need any explanation why mommy gives him a hug and GM blames him. It is an excellent opportunity for him to learn different people. What you can teach him is respect for grand mother if you will be showing it by yourself.

My grandmother were similar. Very tough, raised 6 kids on her own. Yelled at grandchildren all the time (including cursing us). Only after she died, I realized that she was the one who thought us how to work hard, how to love what you are doing, and how to enjoy your life. My mom was a soft loving and caring woman, bot all my life long lessons came from my grandmother.[/quote]
