[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]ours got worse. inlaws were really possessive over our kids (their first grand children). [/quote] Ayup. My relationship with MIL improved actually. She was awesone, and really seemed to let go of her...fussiness when ds was born. Unfortunately, she passed away when ds was 18 months. FIL on the other hand went nuts with the possessiveness. Now days (ds just turned 4), FIL will barely speak to us because we have another relative babysit when we go out of town. It really depends on the type of people you're dealing with. I think a LOT of grandparents actually do get that things are different these days and respect their kid's parenting decisions. My FIL has always been easygoing with us, so I was surprised how possessive he was with ds (not his first grand baby, but the first in 20 years). Your inlaws might surprise you, like my MIL. Good luck.[/quote]
