Dealing With Your In-Laws
If They Ignore Your Child-Care Rules...
Reiterate the rules. By disregarding your rules, your in-laws are sending a message to you and your children that they know what's best. You and your husband should let them know that when they disobey your rules, they're undermining your authority. Putting it in the context of what's best for your kids may help to hammer home the point. "Rules need to be clearly set," says psychologist Pauline Wallin. "If you say no candy, no playing with toy guns, then none of that can happen. If it does, then don't let your in-laws watch your kids."
