As a grandmother to two young children, aged three and five, I find myself increasingly worried about my daughter's approach to parenting. Observing her interactions with the kids, I notice behaviors that raise red flags for me. It seems she often resorts to methods that may not be in the best interest of their emotional and developmental needs.
While I understand that every parent has their own style, I can't help but feel a sense of urgency to intervene. The children are at a critical stage of their growth, and I fear that certain practices could lead to long-term effects on their well-being. My daughter, despite her love for her kids, may not recognize the potential consequences of her actions.
I grapple with the dilemma of stepping in without overstepping boundaries. It’s a delicate balance between offering support and respecting her autonomy as a parent. I want to ensure that my grandchildren thrive, but I also want to maintain a healthy relationship with my daughter. How can I approach this sensitive issue without causing conflict?
