DCM arrives 10 mins early than her scheduled arrival time. Then she proceeds to tell me that DCB has been cranky all morning from teething so she gave him tylenol. Everytime she puts down DCB, he starts screaming and reaching for her, and she feeds right into it. Starts with the baby talk, "ooooh baby it's ok" and picks him up. He instantly stops crying. She tries to say goodbye and puts him down, he starts screaming again, so she picks him up and starts baby talking to him again. This went on for a good 5 mins until I finally just picked him up and told her to leave and he would be fine - as soon as mom was out of sight, he was completely fine! Then, DCG (sister of DCB) has gum in her mouth that keeps falling out of her mouth onto my carpet. Then all the other kids want gum, so I told her to spit it out. Then she proceeds to tell me that she already ate breakfast before she came. I ask, "oh cool. what did you have?" Lucky charms and scooby fruit snacks.
2nd family comes, DCB isn't wearing a coat - its 15 degrees outside - because he wouldn't "let" his dad put it on him.
I wish parents would parent!
I was telling DH how all of this annoyed me and he said I was being controlling and I can't tell people how to raise their kids. Grrrr
OK I am done. Just needed to vent.
