It’s not unusual for grandparents to interfere in their adult children’s parenting decisions. Many grandparents think that because they already raised their kids, they automatically have the knowledge and skills to deal with today’s teens. According to a C. S. Mott Children’s Hospital survey, 47% of parents and grandparents disagree about what’s best for the grandkids.
When this grandmother claimed to know how to deal with a disobedient 14-year-old better than her daughter-in-law, the mom decided to let the MIL put her money where her mouth was. She asked people whether she was being unreasonable when she refused to pick the daughter up.
