annoying

Grandparents are annoying. In my case when I want to discipline my kid, they take his sides and thus he does not listen to me. I tried to make them understand but they say that he is just a kid so no need to discipline now. When I argue with them, they blame me for everything. It is tough dealing with interfering grandparents. It seems that I have no right over my child.

It really irks when we try teach the kid something,and somebody interferes giving advises.Specially as a mother when I try to be stubborn about certain things ,which my child usually takes for granted,my in-laws intrude and take him aside diverting him from the whole topic .All the pain I take to make him understand what to do and what not to do,goes in vain.Doing this ,grandparents only spoil the kids and in return what we see is lot of indiscipline and never ending temper tantrums by the end of the day.I feel when teaching a kid about good nd bad everyone in the house including the father should stand for the same cause.Then only one can give the best for their kids.

Grandparents can be sometimes very interfering especially when they shower too much love and affection. They do not realize that too much love and affection in the wrong way can harm the child. Giving in to demands is the wrong way of showering love. Similarly giving junk foods is also not a good idea. I think that there should be harmony between the parents and grandparents for the relation to flourish.

I feel that my husbands parents are using their son. My husband is from India and I am from the USA. He obtained his greencard and citizenship through me after coming here. He is a physician and obtained his residency training. I worked to earn for our family for two years until he got his job. Then he applied for his parents to visit us on a visiting visa.

RE:self centered inlaws

I agree they have completely double standards as I recently found out. I saw my husbands childhood photos when he was young. His parents claim they sacrificed everything for their kids and lived poor and behave like martyr parents. Got treated as free domestic servant. But the photos showed them dressed like Bollywood stars with watches and jewellery enjoying their life. O... - Tina [View Message]
