Love my mom but she annoyed me earlier today. She always gives 2 yo ds her cell and camera to play with. DH and I never let him play with ours, but she lets him have hers. At some point she took the phone back and he got upset and she told me and then later my dad that ds was "really bratty" about the phone. I've told her that we like to set consistent limits and that she can't expect to let him play with it at will and then be thrilled when she changes her mind. [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

I don't care if she gives him the phone, I object to her calling him a brat when he didn't hand it back over with a smile and a kiss. [ Reply | More

why does this annoy you so much? the fact that you are still thinking about it tells me that you can't handle anyone saying anything negative about your child. [ Reply | More

I agree, that calling ds a brat for a situation she created is a bit over the top. [ Reply | More

Thanks, that is what bugged me. I am happy to let Grandma have her own rules (to an extent) but I felt like she kind of set him up for failure on this one. [ Reply | More
