Basket Bag Cookie
Saturday, November 6th, 2010Basket Bag Cookie
My ex-husbands mom keeps sending my 6 year old home with......?
large grocery bag of junk food. I told her stop sending this stuff home with my child we do not eat this type of stuff in my home-I understand thats her grandma but my child came home with a bag that contained (lg bag of funyuns, cheez-its, assorted bag of candy, sour cream and onion pringles, pack of oreo cookies) is all of this necessary. my child's grandmother continues to ignore me when i suggest she buy my daughter fruits (which my daughter absolutley loves) but she goes "well she kept putting stuff in the basket" and i tell her "she is a child and you are a adult, tell her no-this stuff isnt good for her" what is a more effective way to approach this?
Take the garbage and throw it away after your daughter goes to bed. Explain to your daughter (if she pitches a fit) that you don't allow it in your home because it is not healthy and that you love her. More than likely your daughter won't even be fazed. I know exactly how you feel. My ex-mother-in-law is a diabetic who loves candy (go figure) and does the same thing. I have to bite my tongue if my son goes over to that environment and when he gets back I simply confiscate and toss the garbage. He's ADHD and in my experience (I have raised him since birth so I know my kid) any extra sugar sends him through the roof. Unfortunately it's a battle that you'll never win. It's the mother-in-law's house not your's. But you are not being an evil mom by denying the crap ingestion in your own home. Eventually your daughter is going to start telling dear old granny that she'd rather eat good food because it makes her feel better. You're doing great by setting a good example. Bide your time. Your daughter will start speaking up for herself. Good luck.

He scolded you when you broke rules but glowed with pride in each of your achievements. Your father had unflinching faith in your abilities.
