[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 571620, member: 1514"] Ohhhhh, I didnt realize you were dealing with that too. Sigh, that does make it harder. My mom had schizoaffective and she did her utmost best to undermine me at ever turn. I do think you just are very stuck. You may just have to explain to the child that Grandma and Grandpa arent exactly right and that you are in the position of being her parent and that no matter what they do, you make the decisions. They may play Disney fun folks and if all is going well you dont mind her spending time with them but if you have made decisions for her then she, and them, have to abide by your decisions for the period of time you decide. When that time is over, she is free to have time with her grandparents again. If she attempts to triangulate you all against each other, the punishments will just get worse and worse for her.
