What Should I Do? What Would You Prefer As A Parent?

[Vixstar]

I would try.....i stress try....to do more or less what his Mummy and daddy do but if being away from his parents requires him to be held and cuddled.......that's what it takes then. I was nearly going to say 'house rules' but remembered I have an issue about things my MIL does with my boys which erks me!

I hope your sis recovers quickly.

When I disagree with how I'm raising my child with someone, I remember he is MY child and if someone wants to do something I believe is detrimental to my son, I do not leave him with them.

Cuddling isn't detrimental, but if you're cuddling because you want to rather than because baby needs it - and against parental wishes, then I won't stick up for you. I know you want to do what you believe is best, but I believe cuddling is best and a friend of mine swears by CIO. I just don't let her babysit!
