Hi all,
I have to write this down because i am really ....... off. I'll give you some background detail first, I have a 9 month old baby girl, i am still with the dad but he lives at his families home and i live at mine (hopefully for not much longer ) any way, on the occassions i have taken Ella over to her Pa's house ( my partners dad ) he has tried to give her biscuits, and bascially food that she shouldn't be having, even trying to give her food when she wasn't on solids. One time i told him i didn't want him to give her a teddy bear biscuit but he did anyway. I was so angry. He also has a staffy and sorry for anyone who has one but my mum is a vet and she has seen so many cases of these dogs attacking babies, there so unpredictable. Her pa lets the dog lick her and being a baby with unpredictable movements i worry when she is around the dog. Pa always wants to have her overnight, and i;m sorry but i have never spent a night away from her and i don't want to right now and i think thats only natural. So the thing is he is taking her tommorrow for an hour and half. I said to my partner that thats all i'm happy for him to have her, that way he doesn't need to feed her. Less temptation to naughty food to be given. I feel really sick thinking about what they will get up to. My partner is really upset and says he understands but who knows if he really does. He says he's dad just want's to spend time with her. I understand that but he never comes to my place to see her or rings to see how she is i always have to take her over to his place. It would be so much easier if he came here.
Is this normal??? What should i do??? I don't want to cause a problem between the families. Do most people let their childs grandparents overnight etc??
Help i'm sick with worry and it's only for an hour and a half
