I have 4 sets of grandkids. 3 sets all fine.
Had one set over for the weekend.
Age 5 and 4.
5 year old behaviour was appalling. Turned nasty when told they couldn’t do something. Obviously gets their own way at home. Well behaved elsewhere as far as I know.
Went beserk at both of us and kicked , hit and bit us. Nothing short of a wild animal. When they did go for my face, i pulled their hair and they sprang back in shock. It was dreadful.
If it had been my child, it would have been a good smack bottom .but felt unable to do so as the child isn’t mine.
I have never seen the child like this previously and am at a loss how to proceed as it’s tricky now and there is a tension between us and the parents. I don’t feel that the child has been punished at all. Makes me sad as I don’t know how to move on . I know the child isn’t very old, but the aggression was unbelievable. Me thinks that this goes on at home and wasn’t mentioned. Would be interested to hear other grandparents thoughts and if they have had anything similar happen.
