Parenting

So I guess I'm supposed to act like nothing happened.

I had to get on to our nephew last night about his behavior and shitty attitude. DH's grandmother heard and decided to come out of her room and yell at me in front of my nephew and my children. You know, because the nephew is as pure as the driven snow Confused

On top of her yelling at me in front of him, and all but saying that I have no right to scold him, she took a cheap shot at my kids' behavior. You know, my toddlers. I proceeded to tell her that my children are normal, and, no, they don't always listen. BUT they do get disciplined. Really? Comparing my toddlers' behavior to a fourteen year old's behavior...who should know better? WTF?

No apology, but she just wants to act like everything is fine and dandy this morning. It just pisses me off.

  • Ok.  I'm in a snarky mood today.  Take ol grandma and nephew and boot them out to raise each other.  snark over.  Sorry you are dealing with it from both ends.

  • Dude you are a SAINT!  Your somewhat delinquent nephew AND your dh's grandmother live with you?  I would run away from home screaming all the way.

    There have been those days ; )

    It's actually her house. She can't live alone anymore and, surprisingly (lol), it wasn't working when it was just her and my alcoholic BIL. So that left us to move in and "watch" her.
