[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Absolutely not! Grandparents are there to provide another loving adult that children can bond with and learn from. Grandparents are NOT there to undermine the parents. [/quote] I did not say undermine. grandparents are there to be loving adults, which can include the occasional spoiling... F me....mashed potatoes are now solid foods... for the love of god.... [/quote] Hey genius...mashed potatoes usually contain butter, milk and/or cream. Babies that age may well have an allergy to cows milk. They are only supposed to have breast milk or formula until a doctor says otherwise at a 9 month checkup. Idiot.[/quote] Okay. I'm of the "respect the parents' wishes," but you're going a bit overboard here. Avoidance of cow's milk in the first year is one of those "abundance of caution" things. A steady diet might be harmful (though there were kids fed this way not so long ago), but an occasional taste is very unlikely to do harm - kind of equivalent to the occasional car ride. Some parents use rules like these as a means to control their children, other people, etc. It can get pretty crazy. --PP grandma who has to turn off the wifi. [/quote]
