I allow my parents a lot of leeway when it comes to me. It is out of love and respect (and they are quite old), and the knowledge that everything they do is out of love, even when it is sometimes misguided. However, when it comes to my children, I am a mother tiger. There is no one, not my parents, or anyone else on this planet, including my dear husband, that will dictate or direct in the negative against what I see as the best interests of my children. I truly did become an adult when I had them, standing on my own two feet and challenging anyone or anything that could harm them. I am fearless when it comes to protecting them and advocating for them.
I don't know how old your children are or how often they visit with their grandparents but, protecting and defending the best interests of my children wouldn't even be up for discussion with me. My parents would bend to my will or not see my children, and I adore my parents and my children adore them, too.
