Technically, I'm the great aunt but here's my dilemma. I'm taking my nephew, his wife, and their son to celebrate his third birthday. I get this baby at least 3 weekends a month so he and I are very close and have a great relationship. My concern is how differently his parents and I allow this toddler to explore and play. When we have gone to local amusement parks together his parents are ready to move on after 5 minutes or less while the baby wants to stay and explore longer. Pulling him away from something he's engaged in causes quite a fit not just for him but his parents. I would prefer to give him longer to explore and then after some time (15 minutes or so) start letting him know that in 5 minutes we're moving on to see (fill in the blank). I remind him again at three minutes and at 1 minute and by them I have something else in mind to make the exit fuss free. So, right now, I have the FP+s scheduled and I'm thinking of using those times when Mom & Dad are on the rides to allow him to do things that interest him. I would also be willing to just walk around with him for longer giving his parents time to enjoy the parks at their pace. But, I also recognize that this is a family vacation so I don't want us separating all the time. So, after all that, parents, when do you want me to back off? I'll definitely talk to the parents as well but I would appreciate the feedback from others too. Thanks so much!
