[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe, too, remember that you are her child, and she may feel powerless to "make things better" for you?[/quote] +100 she means well.[/quote] Of course she means well. But it's such a trite thing to say. Remember, the road to hell is paved with good intentions. I like pps' suggestion, acknowledge her anxiety and try to see it as a reflection of that instead an indictment on your parenting. I'm sorry OP. My mom does this to me all the time and I don't always react well. This is a good reminder to me as well.[/quote] +1 I'm sure she does mean well, but that doesn't obligate OP to be silent and take it. She can say, "I know that you want what's best for DS. Parenting a SN child is difficult, and we are working with teachers/doctors/therapists to best address his needs. Please just be there to love and support DS as his grandma, and if I need advice, I will ask."[/quote]
