[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Only on DCUM this is an issue. When grandparents visit, unless it's a special outing (which is likely on the weekend anyway) we keep to the basic schedule. The difference is our nanny can get stuff done while grandparents entertain the kids. But the basic structure is the same. My mom is hands on and has a ton of opinions, but my nanny is from the same culture so they bond over their opinions and exchange advice and recipes. My mom usually cooks for everyone including the kids. My inlaws have no opinions they express to the nanny and generally stay out of the way and choose when to join in activities. They are obnoxious with plates and cleaning up after themselves but they generally visit for very short periods of time and we generally pay the nanny more for those days. How is this so difficult? [/quote] It’s an issue beyond DCUM, PP. You have absolutely no clue how awful some grandparents can be. I’m the poster from above who had one - just one - horrible set of grandmothers in my nanny career and it was painful. [/quote][/quote]
