[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because it’s not actually about the food. It’s about control. [/quote] +1. My DH is sort of like your husband. Luckily both sets of grandparents live far away from us, so when we see them, we are usually visiting. I told him that when we are in their houses, we have to follow their rules, not ours. If their rules include dessert every night, then it's dessert every night. We can teach our kids that dessert every night isn't the best choice, but our kids also need to learn that some grandparents want to show their love to their grandchildren by giving them fun desserts/candy. We're there for a relatively short time that it doesn't matter in the overall scheme of things. Kids aren't going to become obese in this way. They *will* have problems if food becomes a control issue, as it seems it has in your house.[/quote]
