Hi Sushmita, if your in-law are giving all the junk to your child you must make them understand softly that it is not good for the health of the child and he must have healthy food. They will also understand your concern and stop giving all the junk. But not its already late...find a way out for getting rid of this habit of your child...But you at-least know that your child are in safe hands. I have leave my children with my maid and I am really scared.

I don't agree with Prajakta. Grandparents are sometimes responsible for bad habits in children. My in-law gave lots of chocolates and chips to my son and due to which he got into really bad habit of eating chocolate and chips everyday. It is good if the grandparents know what to give and what not to give to their grandchildren.

Grandparents are really good support system for working mothers. They do not spoil the children in fact they can take better care of children than parents. It is better to rely on grandparents than on maids and servants. You are at least assured that your kids is in safe hands.
