Struggling to avoid frustration with family , particularly older relatives, when it comes to the kids. 

They do things out of laziness and selfishness that encourage bad habits or cause a problem later (like ruining naptime or something). 

They don’t listen and then they give me shit for having to be on their case.

Yes definitely a healthy dose of that. With an air of superiority like they know some ancient wisdom lol and then you have to navigate bruised egos. 

Although they’re always shoving screens in the kids’ faces which wasn’t even a thing when they had kids!

uncomfortable for sure, i've had episodes like this w/ my mother, not so much due to encouraging bad habits, just on things we're trying to do differently in our household; but she takes it like i'm criticizing her...

then tension goes away after a while but nothing really gets resolved 😅 same case for you?

Your house, your rules. 
When your are/were in their house, you respected that. They have to respect the same in yours. Their boomer ways don't work in how your raising your kids. Remind them of the countless other boomer things that don't work like lawn darts. So respect your rules or visit at a different time.
