I'll be disappearing for a few days, as my daughter is getting married, here at the Delaware house, on Friday. After a reception, she and spouse are off for a short weekend honeymoon. Mrs. Slick and I are in charge of their 3 children(all under the age of 5), our beloved grandkids, until about noon on Monday. Is it ethical for us to get even by loading the little tackers up with cake, ice cream and donuts in the last two hours on Monday before pickup?

You forgot caffeinated beverages roughly 30 minutes before the hand off.

ethics definitely take a back seat to behind the scenes parenting tactics in many ways so...

HELL YES it's written in to the Constitution of Grandparenting

Have a good time at the wedding!

I'd keep the little demons locked up in a room all weekend. Released they be worse than on a sugar high.

Absolutely! you're not the one who has to take care of them afterwards, so let er rip!

Final status: bar stocked, food prepped, house prettied up, children rehearsed their parts........time to grit my teeth and see my daughter get married.
See y'all in about a week!

Have fun!

Back intact....all went well and the world as we know it did not cease to exist, I note by reading the news.
