[quote=Anonymous]I don’t even know what to say to my mom. Backstory: My mom is the type who will call and ask to see the grandkids. I will suggest a time, say Thursday or Saturday. My mom will have all sorts of plans like “I can’t do Saturday, I have lunch plans with my friend Ethel” or “Thursday won’t work, I’m taking my friend Laurel to the dentist.” Fine. But she won’t suggest an alternative, she just plays this pity party game about how she misses the grandkids, to which the cycle repeats itself. Now the kids are teens and the tables have turned, and they now have their own “plans” with their own “Ethel and Laurel”, and my mom just can not deal. She sees this as a personal affront, whines and complains, yet won’t make any effort to see them when it works for them. Also, and most importantly, she doesn’t see the irony. I need a comeback, something to say. Help![/quote]
