Parent vs Grandparent discussions
-
So, with the birth of G3 (see other thread) we've been with G2 (he'll be 4 in August) for the last 48 hours. D4 had a c-section, and SIL has been with her.
G2 has been with us all the time. Last night he slept with Mrs. George and I was in the guest bedroom.
Tonight, Mrs. George crawled into bed with him and I came to check on them, to find G2 "playing with his junk."
Really, this was the most polite way I could have described it.
So, I said to Mrs. George, "You see what he's doing, don't you?"
"Yeah, I do."
"You gonna address it?
"Nope."
"Good idea. This is a conversation to be had by parents, not grandparents."
Having never had a son, I'm glad I didn't have to deal with this.
