Grandparents interfere

Hi Divya, I think you need to stop your so from interacting with them too much if they don't listen to you. Keep him busy in classes and play etc. Also, spend time with your son to strengthen the bond. Lastly, when they say such a thing, react at the moment and tell them hat saying such things to a child is not good.

H Divya, I like Kritikas suggestion about strengthening the bond with your child so that no one can break it. also, rather than your husband, speak up yourself and check them for such comments.

Tell them that what they are doing is not right and is not good for the child. If your son loses faith in you, he will be emotionally upset because the strongest support a child has is his mother. so be strict.

hello Divya, don't worry too much... remember nothing comes in between mother and child bond. But if the issue is of him showing disrespect to you, then you should tell your in-laws that they are creating trouble in the house and disturbing the peace and they should refrain from it.

Hi Divya ! I can understand u r situation. But trust me when I say that u r in laws do not understand the implications of this behavior and r doing it in sheer love for their grandchild . They have no intentions to come in between mother and child or to put u down. If u discuss with them in a separate room and not in front of the child by giving an example how their this approach is affecting things, I am sure this conversation between u and ur in laws will bring out some fruitful conclusion and they would appreciate it too. Please also make sure the tone should be non complaining and seeking help rather than passing judgment while discussion . I am sure they will understand the plight of a mother .

Divya,I would suggest you should take ur in laws to a family counsellor or a psychologist who will make them understand the ill effects of their talk. In case your in laws show resistance in approaching a counselor,you & ur husband can visit him who in turn can train you to deal with such situations. best of luck.

Divya I understand your plight but they may not do it intentionally. Try to spend as much time as you can with your child. Have that play time set aside for both of you. I have observed it helps. And if your in laws still keep continuing with this sort of behaviour try talking it out with them. This may hell to solve that difference.

Hi. I agree to shikha. That is the approach, i followed and im happy now. Please dont discuss anything in any concern with your inlaws in

Front of your child or husband. That will definitely ruin you. Be patient. I suggest you to go an outing for atleast 3 days once in 2 months. That will help you much better.

Also i feel, just by his grand parents words, your son may not go away from you. Analyse and take time for your self. Are your showing any of those frustation on your son? Sometimes unintensionally it may happen. So balance yourself.

Hi Divya I totally agree with Shikha and Divya. Your in-laws behavior is nothing new. Its us the case with many a families. I would say this is general Indian behavior. But instead of confronting with them it wouldb better that you have a talk with them. I'm sure they are not doing it intentionally. Once they will understand your feelings they will surely change their behavior, I m sure of this. Don't take any decision in haste. All d best.
