Just been talking to one of my sons on the phone. He has 3 yr old twins - a boy and a girl. They are mini anarchists who, for example, constantly and deliberately defy their parents, refuse to comply with any rules, such as wearing a seat belt in cars and planes, run into the road, scream ghoulishly when thwarted in any way, take delight in removing all their clothes wherever and whenever the fancy takes them. DS & DIL fondly indulge these tactics and smile benignly. But DS always uses our phone conversations to quietly complain about them (always followed by the phrase ''bless him/her/them" to soften!) Usually I say nothing or make sympathetic noises. Tonight I suggested gently that DS & DIL are going to have to adopt a more authoritative approach, otherwise the DGs are going to become totally unmanageable (they are already but I didn't say that). DS immediately jumped up on high horse and said, "WE'RE DEALING WITH IT MUM!" (upper case intended) and will now sulk for days at my daring to offer advice. AIBU to feel aggrieved?
