Readers respond: What are some things your grandkids aren’t allowed to do?

Having the grandkids come round to visit can be such a joy and the perfect way to create some sweet memories with them. 

As much as it’s a chance to spoil them, there are some things grandkids can’t get away with.

From trampolining off the furniture to improper manners, when we asked our readers what they wouldn’t allow their grandkids to do, this is what you had to say.

Shena Wood - All my grandkids are so good when they come. Only one real rule and that is we eat at the table.

Shirley Gaye Howearth - Nothing, they are allowed to do whatever pleases them.

Jill Edwards - No tech while eating! This is for all meals, (whether) at the table or on the couch.

Joy Scott - Sit at table to eat and little ones wipe hands before leaving. Saves a lot of work.

Dalena Lee - Jump on the couch. I tell them that when they see me jump on the couch, then they can.

Jan Bradley - Table manners, respect, no jumping or climbing on furniture! Aside from that I don’t have any rules, just love spending time with them.

Helen Vella - My kids weren’t allowed to do anything, my grandkids can do whatever they want.

Jennifer Slack-Smith - I say ‘Whatever happens at Nanny’s stays at Nanny’s.’

Heather Cassey - Torment the cat, disrespect me, or anything that will hurt them. Other than that they pretty much have me twisted around their little fingers.

Douglas Jones - I always send my grandchildren home with a tube of glitter.
