My mother in law has always been an entertainer with my daughter, making loud noises, giggling, jumping up and down and doing all the things with her that get her really excited - too excited. I think she does it because she thinks that my daughter has to feel that way around her. Up until recently I have kind of managed talked to her about it asking her to please try to be a calmer with my daughter because she gets out of control when she is so excited, but if anything my mother in law got worse, and does way more things to get my daughter to her hyperness. We live with them so I am in a tough position. I have no problem with my daughter getting excited but for the last 4 month or so she is almost out of control every time she sees grandma, she can't walk down the stairs holding someones hand, she trips, throws things screams.. endangering herself and others around her, but each time it is right after my grandmother winds her up. SO my question is how to deal wtih it. I know take deep breaths and everything will be okay but it;s not okay because today she almost fell on a chair because grandma was outside waving and jumping up and down so of course she did the same thing. my husband thinks i am jealous, well i am not i have had bad days with my daughter because i over react but i do not need her to be giggling all the time. i just want her to be safe, i am tired of her banging her head, getting bruises all over her leg because she is so hyper. i have tried telling my daughter to calm down but how can i tell her that if my mother in law is there jumping up and down and super hyper. i know that sometimes it's good to be like that but my mother in law is always like that with her and this over-excitement always ends up in a tantrum

help!.. i love my mother in law, it may not sound like it but i do, but i love my daugher more and need her to be safe.

any thoughts
