Let me start off by saying that I LOVE MY PARENTS. They have done so much for me, and now my family. I truly don’t know what I would do without them…but they drive me crazy. Sometimes I wonder if the people watching letting my kids run a muck are the same people who were super strict with me. Of course, I know that being a grandparent is completely different from being a parent. The responsibility and weight of raising a human being isn’t on their shoulders, (as it shouldn’t) but WOW. I’m all for them spoiling the kids on occasion. And I love that they take them places, and babysit so hubby and I can get out on our own. But I’m starting to feel like I redirect my parents as much as I do my kids. I’ve actually had to laugh out loud at some situations.
What makes the situation even more hilarious is how opposite my parents are. My dad is the candy/junk/fast food king. So much so that I wonder if these companies are secretly paying him for all his hard work distributing and pushing their products. I don’t know if there has been a time where I’ll open my pantry up after a visit and not find Willy Wonka and has whole factory stuff on every shelve. He is definitely the Papa who shows love through food and sweets.
Now my mom doesn’t have a sweet tooth at all close to the degree of my dad, but she has her own weakness; electrics. Yes, ladies and gentlemen my mom will have the newest of everything before I even know its out. Of course, my problem isn’t with that, it with letting my kids play on them until the battery is dead. I guess I’m old time, but I limit the T.V. time my kids get. I want them to play outdoors, read a book, play a board game. I know the oldies but goodies. And though my mom says she agrees, she just can’t seem to help herself.
Now maybe some people wouldn’t get where I’m coming from cause they let their kids have soda, and candy on a regular basis or t.v. and electrics aren’t closely monitor or limited…and to each their own. I just find it interesting that the people who inspired me to be the parent that I am today are the very same people breaking all the rules.
So my conclusion to this mysterious change is simple. Being a parent is hard and that’s why your reward is becoming a grandparent. Love you mom and dad xoxo
Happy Grandparent Day!
