[quote author=cods link=1521082981/24#24 date=1521162391]toys only go up to the age of about 5 after that they are very canny and want what everybody else has..
If it's not an $80 computer game they don't want to know... my grandson has it down pat - out with dad in the shopping centre to link up with grampa and it's :- "Can I JUST get this game? It's discounted to $49.99 ..... aw, PLEEEEASE ..."
By comparison the granddaughters are lovely and adore grampa, who they get to jump on from a height and he catches both them at once, and he's a good mate to go look at the swans nest in the middle of the lake..... grampa is great - he carries one around on his shoulders leaving only two, one for each parent, to watch...
Three hands work better with three kids than two... and the son uses military jargon like, "On ME, kids...", which they ignore....

I agree little girls as long as its PINK and comes with a hair brush they are happy....they god bless them are not so ipad minded.....
you sound like a good poppie grampa..
leave the grandkids with a wonderful image of a much loved grandparent its all we can do....
I am feeding two and sometimes 3 of my grandsons while mum is on a cruise....and yes I stare them down at the table the two eldest ones for daring to look at their phones....they are not too sure how to take me....as for sure they are allowed to do it home but I wont have a bar of it..
if you cant talk at the table without muttering and talking to someone who isnt even in the house..........
then there is something wrong with you..
am I a bad nanny?
