Dear Queenie,
My little children like to visit my husband’s mother, their grandmother, but his kid brother lives with her and he brings his girlfriend home with him and they talk a lot about sex, even in front of the children.
We tried to talk to Grandma about it and she said there is nothing she can do.
Queenie, what can we do?—Offended parents
Dear Parents,
First, be sure your brother-in-law and his girlfriend are not abusing or intimidating your mother-in-law. Then, let your husband talk to his brother and ask him and his girlfriend to watch out how they talk in front of your children – and you can hope that they will do so.
