Following on from another thread which I did not want to totally hijack, can anyone please tell me how I can get my very sweet (step) FIL to stop bloody hissing at my 12 month DD? She hates it and screeches as soon as she sees him now, when she's normally a very calm, smiley little girl. If I am honest, I think I hate it more than she does!
FIL is in his 70s and very sadly had a massive heart attack last year which he only survived due to the very prompt actions of SIL who is a medical professional. He is a really nice man who wouldn't hurt a fly and I would hate to upset him, but everytime he sees DD (only a couple of times a month thankfully), he hisses at her! When they came the other day, DD & I went outside to greet them, she saw who was in the car & didn't stop crying until they left a couple of hours later. FIL hissed at her for pretty much most of those 2 hours! I hate it and just want to shout at him. DH just ignores it, although I know it winds him up too. What to do without causing any hurt?
