[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unless they live with you, try some breathing and relaxation techniques? No kid ended up a spoiled rat forever because grandparents "spoiled" them for a few days. Nor does it actually undermine parent in kids' eyes in any kind of a long run. Kids know that this is an exception. The undermining is all in your head because you are unable to relax for a second. It is usually done by insecure parents like you who can't give up control for a second. Again, if they don't live with you, why do you hate them?[/quote] WTAF is wrong with you, dude? Get a job![/quote] Nothing is wrong with me, and I am a woman and a mom. Something is seriously wrong with so many pps here who can't spend two days over the holidays with their parents or their ILs without trying to prove that they are in charge, they, the parents and not grandparents and that their word is the LAW. It is like any issue is a mountain, and OP is the only guide who knows the way to the top. She is so obsessed with asserting her authority that she lost sight of what matters, not a little jab her mom said, which her mom obviously did to get under her skin, knowing how high strung her adult dd is, she lost sight of allowing her 2 year old to enjoy her grandparents for a couple of days and them pampering her a bit. Her DD is not about to become Dexter, despite what OP might think. [/quote] OP said they see the grandparents every other weekend. Pay attention.[/quote] Oh my! What a little terror she must be seeing her grandparents TWICE a month. Assuming she saw them for Christmas just now.... I am just so stupid for not paying attention, have to have some insane pp on dcum tell me how to read. Every other weekend they carry her for less than 500 feet?! What horrible, horrible grandparents! OP is so right...they will damage her so much![/quote]
