I think it’s odd and something I wouldn’t do, but to each their own.

Why wouldn't you do it seeing it's part of playtime with the child?


Bc I don’t want a rope tied around my neck and to be dragged around on all fours. I would instead say “oh that sounds like fun but let’s do it with these toys instead so we can each have a puppy.” I would then show them how to make leashes on their stuffed animals and pretend we each had a puppy to drag around. I would ask what we should name them, where we are going to show off our new puppies, etc. You want a rope pulling around your neck more power to you. Like I said, to each their own.

Why would anyone tell a 4yr old kid "oh that sounds like fun!" to get a rope around your neck? Some of you are scary.


Ask Grandma.

No one expects Grandma to be the professional, but the nanny should know better. Most nannies here sound more like babysitters who don't know much more than Grandma.

Op sounds lazy. Perhaps you need to retire and volunteer at a library.

Why should we think anything about it? If it was fun for grandma and the child, why do you care?



+2. No one forced you to do it, OP. If grandma didn’t have a problem with it, why would you?
