Could totally TP the bump, but I know I'll get used to it over time.

I honestly want to TP the weather. We have a nice day trip to Sea World planned this saturday for my girls b-day and I'm pretty sure that this tropical storm is going to squash our plans. She is going to be so disappointed, we've had this planned for months.

I know, we are going to ME but it appears it will be raining. Booo.

Have you thought of a little separation from grandmom?Maybe Gma doesn't have to watch her everyday maybe drop to 3 days. nbsp;And maybe reduce some of the nightly phone calls. nbsp;I'm not saying Gma is bad for her, but if the phone call has her crying maybe don't do it some nights. nbsp;nbsp;Just an idea.nbsp;

Life is so much easier for all of us when we have some distance from the grandparents, all of them. The school year is much easier. We tried putting SD in daycare like DS for a while last summer, and it was even worse than having Gma watch her. Her attitude, as well as that of the grandparents and as a result DH's, was horrendous.

But yes, I would love to put as much separation as possible between SD and her Gma and great Gma because they do not follow the structure we impose and completely and purposefully undermine us.

Little comments like ''I wish you could stay here, too'' or ''I am so sad when you leave because I know I will miss you'' or other things that are zeemingly harmlezs or actually very passive aggressive words that set up negative feelings in kids about your SD's age.

Hold on until school starts, maybe limit her nightly phone calls to a couple times a week, and look for a sitter.

You have three options.

1) get her into therapy. She should have had therapy the minute her mother's issues came to fruition so you could have fixed it THEN. But now you will have to do some heavy catch up.

within the therapy, she can address her attachment to Nana and help ease that transtiion.

2) Find the money for daycare and get her out of Nana's house. You have at least 30 more days of Nana's bad influence. Can you imagine how much harder it is going to be with that?

3) Keep on doing what you are doing.
