My boyfriends parents are the kind of grandparents to give their grandkids anything they want when it comes to food. They were joking about how they gave their other two pop and junk food before they were even 1 and how they're going to do the same with my son. I'm not okay with that at all but I don't think they'll listen if I say anything. It's so frustrating.
@rach5698, @beebaby, I wish it were that easy for me. We live with them and will until the house we're moving into is ready. I work full time so I won't be there to say anything, I'm going to tell them not to when he's old enough that they'll do that and hope they actually respect it when I'm at work. I just don't understand it though. Like I get when they're older and getting a treat at grandmas house, but giving a baby pop is too far.
We have a similar situation, my baby is only 12 weeks but my in laws are already excited to give her cookies and ice cream ( when that time comes)... I've made comments like "were not going to do sugary foods" ect but like you said they don't listen...I feel like it's my husbands place to step in and talk to his parents. I agree tho super frustrating!
@milne10, it's so weird to me because I know my parents would 100% respect what I want done with my child, but his parents think it's funny to just do what they want.
