What to do if grandparents spoil your child: talk to your elders

To answer this question briefly, you will have to negotiate with your elders and seek compromises.

Some might say that grandparents are allowed to spoil their children.

But such behavior can negatively affect the authority of parents.

A child may get the impression that “no” is sometimes “yes”.

How can this issue be resolved?

Here are some recommendations.

1. Try to discuss this issue directly. It should be understood that older parents want happiness for the child.
2. Explain why the restrictions imposed on the child are important. Appeal to common sense.
3. Come up with replacements for the restrictions. Think about how to make the ban benefit the child.
4. Compromise. Don't go to extremes and conflict with your parents.
5. Don't forget to thank your grandparents for their helpful help.
