[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mom won’t, or doesn’t like to, see our child unless she can take her for hours and hours, alone. Like the latest instance, she keeps saying she wants to take DD to see Santa. Ok, great! Tuesday or Wednesday after school works great! But that won’t work, because she’s hoping to see her for the whole day, not just a couple hours after school. And weekends don’t always work for us. DD has activities or we have family things planned.

And it’s not just this instance. This happens all the time. She misses DD. Ok, come for dinner. [b]But she won’t, because we will be there[/b]. She won’t come after school, because she wants alone time and because she wants hours. She always says, “I’ll come when I can take her out for the day.” Then she gets mad when we can’t accomodate that as often as she’d like. Do I tell her take it or leave it, or accommodate?[/quote]

Wait, so when do you see your mom? [/quote]
This is OP. She has no problem inviting us over, or out to dinner. But she refuses to just come over our house. She will pass up an opportunity to see the granddaughter she claims she misses, because she can’t take her for hours. We always see her once a month, usually two times. Always at her house. [/quote]
