i have a six year old daughter. i also have grandparents that live three houses away from us. my husband and i do our best as parents, everyone makes a mistake now and then...you know. well, EVERYTIME my husband and I correct our daughter for misbehaving or anything, my grandparents act like it's the end of the world. they try to tell us how we are wrong, and she is ONLY 6, blah blah...and if we don't do what they want us to, then it's because WE are disrespectful and they don't have an opinion because they are old. they want us to listen to them, but when ever we try to give our side or our opinions, they act like we are crazy and to strict. I feel like she is 6 and can take responsibliity for her own actions. i feel like she needs to know that there are consiquences when you misbehave! i'm not going to beat her or lock her in the basement, i just want her to clean up her messes that she makes and if she lies or something, she loses privledges. what can i do to tell them to back off??
