As one grammie to another (sm)
Your best bet is to do absolutely nothing. Leave it to the parents to settle between themselves (or not) and stay completely out of it. I know it's hard.

Sorry for butting in on your conversation, but
yes clipping the nails does help.

I'm butting in here but sewing classes LOL

I took home ec in school too. Dresses were always too short in length or in sleeves. My parents sent me to Singer Sewing School for 2 years. I STILL can't sew. . . but sure wish I could. I don't even own a sewing machine, but have 2 of them sitting in storage (1 mom's, 1 DH's mom's).

BTW, my mom couldn't sew either. My father used to do any sewing that was needed in the house.
