"Note that it does not have to do with "a grandparent who spoils the children""
Despite that being what "doting" means, and what Doting Parent refers to? That's... confusing.
When I think of a "doting grandparent", a little old lady knitting jumpers and baking cakes is exactly what springs to mind.
