What I mean is, do they hug and kiss your child/ren?
Do they actually WANT to spend time with the grandkids?
Do they like to babysit?
It bums me out that dh's mom isn't. In fact she acts add if our children are a nuisance to her. My parents are deceased, but when they were around they were so great with my children. My children felt loved and WANTED, but with dh's mom my children feel unwanted and unloved. She one of those women that have that "I've raised my children" attitude. I can't stand it. Any of you deal with this also?
Yes she was,she was the best grandmother and mother ever! I think I'm the best grandmother also...I love these babies to death.There is nothing I wouldn't do for them.
My parents are great with DD and so is SO's parents (even though DD isn't biologically their grandchild).
Not really. Well, not when it comes to all of my Kids I should say.
Both sets of grandparents are the old fashioned grandparents. They hug/kiss....they call to say hi...my dad draws dd pictures and sends them bc he knows she likes to get mail....both sets of grandparents call and ask to have sleepovers.
Sorry your kids have to go through that. My moms mother was like that. She didnt even acknowledge my sister and I. It always made me so upset that my dads mom was your typical loving grandma and overall great person, but she passed away when I was 4 from cancer....but my moms mother was awful (in so many ways) and lived such a long life.
