There's not much I can do when I'm not there, but it is so frustrating to me that my MIL refuses to just put DS in his crib and let him fall asleep, like he does for every other nap and bedtime. She will hold him or sit with him in a chair, but if he doesn't fall asleep (especially for naps) she won't make him nap then! She brings him back out of his room because "he's not ready to sleep yet." Ugh! She drives me mad sometimes.
