if they are jealous of you taking care of YOUR children, they have to deal with that. I would not let this bother me one bit.
Go on taking care of them and teaching them right from wrong and let the grandparents wallow in their jealousy!

You don't have to deal with anything.
They are the one's that have to learn,
how to stop behaving in that manner.
You are the Mother of your children,
and it's up to you, to set the rules.
Not only when it comes to your children,
but also pertaining to other people.
Don't allow your children's Grandparents,
to start overruling your parental authority.
What "you say goes" it's ok, for Grandparents
to Love the Grandkids, but not to the point
of disrespecting you, either. You must stand
your ground, be fair, but be firm!

Having not said what they were doing which caused you to believe they were jealous it's hard to say.A lot would depend on how obstrusive into your life their feelings were allowing them to be by the actions they take to exspress this feeling.
