I just wonder whether this is a suggestion, a rule or something else. The natural instinct of a parent—and, I must say, a grandparent—would be to stand behind the child to make sure they do the job you are asking of them. It is what you do with children anyway: you put them in front of you. However, if you are a single parent or a parent on your own with a child, moving through and leaving the child behind is a bit unsatisfactory, given where the parents will be.
