10 Things Grandparents Do That Parents Can't Proceed With

This is very often things in our Indian family to give sweets to their grandchildren, just to show them the gesture of love but the American Heart Association’s scientific statement says that children ages 2 to 18 should eat or drink less than 6 teaspoons of added sugars daily, which means the children shouldn't eat sweets at all as they grab the sugars In many other ingredients.

Although, children are uninterested in the results of scientific research, so parents have to carefully monitor their nutrition. So, when grandparents feed their grandchildren sweets secretly, it brings them pleasure — but at the same time, it causes great damage to their health.

In an attempt to spend more time with their grandchildren, sometimes grandparents neglect their bedtime and continue to play with them late in the night and even don't let them sleep in the afternoon. But the scientists say that preschoolers should sleep 10-13 hours a day and teenagers at least 8 hours. A lack of sleep can lead to serious illnesses such as diabetes and can also affect brain activity. That’s why parents don’t like it when someone allows their children to break their sleep schedule.

It is okay to encourage a child, but encouraging them for every little thing can satisfy them with small things which can lead them to stop their growth. Also, the study says that excessive praise can lead to a lack of motivation, which is really harmful to the growth of any child. 

As grandparents love their grandchildren much so they wanted to showcase their grandchildren to everyone and show their every activity on social media. As this is the social media era, everyone wants to showcase their every single activity on social media, which can lead them to ruin their privacy and all will be on social media. This kind of activity doesn't like by Parents as of course, parents, in their turn, may not want to put their private life on public display.

As in childhood, all the children are already loaded with lots of toys, in that the grandparents are still in the mood that they buy more toys just to showcase their love towards their grandchildren.

Where parents know very well which toys children already have and which ones they really need. In addition, when refusing to buy everything, they teach their kids to value money and spend it wisely. When interfering in this process, the grandparents do the child a disservice.

The International Journal of Educational Research and Development found that parental authority is an essential tool in the process of raising children. Any negative statements from grandparents certainly don’t help moms and dads to set an example for their child. In the worst cases, it can even severely undermine trust between them.

According to a study, children are very susceptible to influences from the outside world. Their worldview and values are very fragile, so it’s important they face the least amount of contradictions. When parents teach children one thing and grandparents another, this leads to dissonance which can complicate the learning process.

We often come to our parents for advice, even about raising children. We can discuss quite intimate things that are best not shared with strangers. Learning that friends of the grandparents not only learned of these things but also thoroughly discussed them, usually infuriates parents.

Today, television plays a significant role in our lives. For children, this is not only a means of entertainment, but it’s also a way of getting to know the world. But grandparents often forget about reasonable limits. In 2015, scientists learned how much time children should spend watching TV. Watching TV for more than 2 hours a day can lead to high blood pressure in children.

The world of fashion is changing so fast that sometimes you don’t even know if you look stylish according to modern standards yourself. The age difference between grandparents and grandchildren can be very apparent when it comes to choosing clothes. Moms and dads don’t want to offend the older generation but at the same time, want their child to look stylish. Such a contradiction puts them in an uncomfortable position.
