[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Isn't that the point of grandparents?[/quote] Not the OP, but no. I hate the idea that anyone's role is to spoil kids, or be the disciplinarian, etc. My kids grandparents role is to be two more people in their lives who are stable and responsible and love them and give them a biological tie to their family, etc. It's not to giggle behind my back while sneaking them cookies.[/quote] +1. Grandparents should be a supporting force. Not a conflicting one. [/quote] If grandparents are giggling at you in front of your children but behind your back, that's the problem. The cookies themselves are not the problem. You need to decide which is more important, the grandparents' presence in your children's lives, or the cookies (or whatever issue is causing the dissension). I personally would not fight with my parents or my in-laws about cookies, but we each pick our own hills to die on.[/quote]
