IN REPLY TO: in-laws who discipline your children
AUTHOR: crazy4myboys
Hi, I have been on both ends of this. When I was young my Uncle was the same way with my sister and I. He actually has the same "motto". I don't know if it is to the same extent, but I spent my childhood teffified of him. To this day I don't even like going to his house. We just recently had our first child and I am so nervous to bring him there when we visit my Aunt. All I know is if he tries to discipline my son the way he did us, I'm not going to tolerate it. My advice to you is that if you are uncomefortable with the situation, don't tolorate it. It is the parents job to do the disciplining. If he's anything like my Uncle be prepared to not be invited back for a little while. They will get over it eventually and at least know where you stand. Don't compromise your beliefs though. Good Luck!
