I'll try to make this short as I can. For many years I have struggled with my overbearing parents. I have two children one of which I brought up as a lone parent. My parents seem to continually think I need their input, even though I haven't asked for it and am in my late thirties!
DS1 is going away on a trip this weekend and I've just received an email from my father telling me how I should dress my DS1!! Should I reply telling him he is interfering or just ignore this? We had a massive row last year about them undermining my parenting, I tried talking to them but to no avail so kept them at a distance and as soon as I let my guard down and see them a bit more often or ask anything, they see fit to tell me how to parent my children.
There are many more instances I could give and so wondering if it's just the last straw or AIBU? Also if I should tell him to back off?

AIBU?
Should I tell my parents when they are ring overbearing about my parenting?
