Question
Your latest column, the one about the kids running amok in the grandparents' house...how do you know that this isn't a situation they have facilitated for years by being typical indulgent grandparents and are now suddenly finding the kids behavior offensive b/c of their age? Hubby and I are "mean" parents and cringe when we're over at our respective parents' houses at what they allow, nay encourage, our children to do. But out of respect for them (do as the romans, right) we try (and sometimes succeed) in biting our tongues...anyway, this could easily be them writing to you in another few years when all their grandkids are "tweens." Haha, just something I thought about. :)
