I am LIVID

My sister stopped by on her way to my mom's and since A wanted to see them both she took her. She just dropped her off and said my mom told her to tell me to give A her medicine for her ear infection before she (sister) left. WTF? I have been doing this almost FOUR years think I am more than capable of taking care of her and giving her some damn medicine. She actually sat there and waited for me to give it to her and asked if I was going to so she could go. I told her she could leave b/c I don't need to be told how to care for my child. F*ck that. Now, let me go give my child her medicine so we can go to bed. *&^&%^&%^*#*^#*^#*(

    I was actually just going to ask you how things were going with your mom now that you have your own place...

     

    I think I just got my answer.

    I dont want you to take this the wrong way or think that I"m trivilaizing how you feel, BUT, this seems fairly par for the course with your family. They're nutzo. I think you need to work on letting things go or you're going to get an ulcer.

    Well, I thought they were going better. I should know I can count on them to muck up. Old habits die hard. I'm pissed. She stayed here with A yesterday and I was a wreck thinking she's prob. going to critcize my housekeeping & whatnot. Then I reminded myself I pay the mortgage.

    I can't wait for my sister to have that baby so my mom will lay off me and jump on her back.

    You are not alone.  

    Almost every time I tell my mom that I am going to take the kids somewhere she will ask me "will you be ok with all 3 by yourself?"  or "do you need me to go and help you"

    I know she is trying to be helpful but seriously, Ive been doing this "mom" thing for 4yrs.  Ive done it with 3 for 3yrs.  I think I will manage mom.

    Just know that you are not alone in having your family second guess your ability to parent/mother your own children.  You are a wonderful mother to A and she is lucky to have such a loving, caring hard working mommy!  :)

    I am really sorry.  My mom cut all ties to her family when she was in her late twenties.  They were just very toxic and it was the right decision for her.  Sometimes you just can't make things work.  I would be furious in your position.

    Emilie, I know where you're coming from and I agree. I wish it was in my nature to do that.

    Oh, and I just saw that she sent her home with the juice I specifically said she couldn't have! It's nothing but pure sugar.

    I seriously hate them sometimes and wish I had moved far, far away.
