[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As others have said, just let this one go. No need for a veto. [b]If you refer to MIL as grandma or another preferred name, your child will use that name[/b]. I had a really similar experience with my MIL, but my kid chose to call her a cute mispronunciation of her first name. Don't bother with the veto-even though you have a good relationship, she's obviously put some thought into it and it's not worth the trouble of saying no.[/quote] Not if MIL lives nearby. Maybe this works if your kid only Skypes with them and sees them once in a great while, but my MIL lives in town, and this would NOT work.[/quote] MIL lives in town and provided child care until child was 2.5. MIL wanted to be called something similar to what OP is describing, but child refused. Veto was unnecessary because child vetoed![/quote]
