Spending time with my granddaughter always gives me a lift.
No matter the stresses in life, when she laughs, I laugh.
The gift of being a grannie is definitely the most special job anybody can have.
Our role is to protect them and guide them on how to navigate a difficult world and how their behaviour within it affects it.
I have to confess, when my daughter introduced the naughty step, I had doubts, because I didn’t believe that her method would be effective.
My eldest child had the discussion about her daughter’s negative behaviour afterwards; she understood the purpose, and my heart swelled with pride.
Being a grandmother is the best! Cheers.

She hates the naughty step, and it gives her time to think.

Sometimes new ideas do work. My mom always had a lot to say about my parenting and my MIL said nothing.

The “naughty step” is new to me but I can guess. What a blessing to see your daughter raise her own child with wisdom and care!

They say a lot about a person, not just in the eyes of others but also their own well-being.
