[quote=Anonymous]We, and several of our friends, had the various grandparents take a "grandparent care class". This was because they all flew in at various times of my mat leave, and beyond, wanting to "help" by holding and watching the baby. Not me or meals or cleaning, etc. while they stayed at our home. Thing was, one set of gparents hadn't been near a baby in decades! And one grandparent from another country/culture was all about giving the newborn honey, tea, had no experience diapering/cleaning girl babies, etc. The course gave us something to all talk about and was a lot better than me handing out the Nanny Care sheet to the inlaws! And they purposely wanted to come when I went back to work so as to "help" and spend more time with the baby. Them going from zero to 9 hrs of FT baby care after 35 years off freaked me out, so that didn't happen exactly like that.[/quote]
