Re: toddler tantrums.
I feel sorry for those who have missed the love and spoiling from their grand-parents, specially from the father side… often seen that these kind of kids have a boring childhood and they intend to give the same to their young ones…
what should the grand-parents do, hate the kid??? the wasted and spoiled DILs, who hate or dislike or consider their In-laws as burden on earth and complain about them all the time can never imagine the kind of help and assistance they can offer in the up-bringing of the little demon in the house, in case of OP two of them, let he handle both alone with her working husband for 2 or 3 months, as they say in Urdu, Atay Daal ka bhaóo maloom ho jaye ga, and would be looking for the nurseries and school who can take the kids away from her even if it is for few hours…
It is a normal observation that the kids grown with the help of Grand Parents are more confident and are normally aware of basic things which the so-called busy moms cannot even imagine to teach their kids… they teach the basic of their religion, the alphabets, the Kalima the, counting and many more other other things, not to mention the love they put into the kids…
Here i remember my grand parents, i use to hide behind them whenever i do wrong everytime they supported and protected me from the rage of my parents yet taught me to fix my mistakes and i believe this i could have not learned without them.. parents are blessing and grand parents icing on the cake… but yeah, our DILs can’t like them because they remember once how her MIL never offered her mango shake or how once she told her to correct her attitdue…
Feel sorry for the parents who get such SIL and DILs…
