I have been scouring through tons of websites trying to figure out a way to handle this exact problem with my MIL. Everything I had been reading said "keep the kids away from her until she can agree to follow your rules!" which I knew would not work. And regardless of the spoiling.. I didn't want to do because I know my kids love their grandma and I don't want them to feel like they are being punished and can't see her. I want them to have a good relationship with her, i just dont want to have to create a situation where they think they dont have to listen to me. This was a really helpful way to handle the situation and I am going to try it with my son! Thank you! J. I just wanted to thank you for this advice!
