Well I did it...

I sent my mil a email explaining my feelings on how she has only seen her grandson 6 times, ever! There were some other topics I brought up like how she flakes out on us all the time and is just pretty much completely absent. So well see what goes down. My husband has my back and agrees with everything I wrote so im not as nervous with his support. I hate confrontation.

  • Thumbs up to you!  If it makes you feel any better, my family has not seen LO nearly as much as H's family and it kind of makes me sad, but I just say it's their loss.  Hopefully she takes your email positively and makes a better effort to be there for LO.  If not, try not to be disappointed and know that your H stands behind you.  Good luck and keep us posted.

    Good luck and I'm very glad you did this. If you cannot express how you feel it will all blow up and could cause so much more damage. Keep us updated.

  • Good for you!  I truely hope that she will change and be more involved with Frankie.
  • Good for you! She needed to hear it. And it's great your husband has your back. That would put me more at ease too. Let us know the outcome!! Hopefully something good will come of it!

  • We've been waiting to hear from her all day but nothing yet. I'm sure she will try to turn it around on us and were prepared for it. For now I've said my peace and I'm done with it. I just hope it changes things instead of making them worse.

  • Well nothing still just a passive aggressive post on fb...i'm sure nothing will ever come of it. Heres her fb message..so i just hid her on fb..

     "Have you ever heard the old saying? " They never remember what you did right and always remember what you got wrong?" I always that was about the workplace. It isn't."

    Wow, passive aggressive indeed.

    The snotty little b*tch in me would want to post "You have to do the right things before people can remember them". But it's probably better to just hide her.  

    Yeah I seriously contemplated several responses. One of which was a basic "fuuuuck you" or something along the lines of "passive aggressive is not a good look for you". Several others that I can't even edit enough to post on tb.

  • imageleilei7369:
    Not only does she seem passive aggressive she also seems to be a "right fighter" and seems to "play the victim". The bottom line is you told her how you and H felt. You and H are on the same page concerning her behavior. I'm sorry she wasn't receptive to you or your feelings. She simply doesn't want to take responsibility for her behavior. Sorry Cajun. By any chance is H her only son?nbsp;
    You hit the nail on the head! This is her to a T, and yes my husband is her only child. You should totally go into psychology, lol!

  • Well i responded to her fb post just now because she's not contacted us at all and if she's going to put that shiiit on fb i'll play.

    My response..
    "I'll bite since this is so passive aggressive...it's not about what you did do it's about what you didn't. We just want your grandchild to know who you are, I dont think that's a bad thing."

    screw her!
