[quote=Anonymous]FWIW, I do this with my SIL, because she's very sensitive that I not dare ever overstep my place as aunt and discipline her children. So if I said, "No jumping on the couch", she would call me out and say I'm not the mom. (She's a monster, BTW, and I'm not at all implying that you are...just that there might be another reason she is doing this.) So I say, "Mommy says no more cookies" or "Mommy says it's too cold to play outside" not because I want her to be the meanie -- in fact, she rarely disciplines or has limits - but only because the only authority I'm allowed to have is authority in her name with her permission.[/quote]
