[quote=Anonymous]Yesterday was my son’s 3rd birthday party , and I’m feeling a little concerned about my MIL, who’s 58. She’s usually so thoughtful, but her behavior felt a bit off.

She arrived three hours early, asked to use our bathroom and shower to get ready, and came out looking like she was going to a fashion show, not a kid’s birthday party! I complimented her, but it felt a little much. Then, she realized she forgot my son’s gift that she thought she had ordered online, so she went to the store and came back with bags full of of random toys. Personally, I think toys are a waste of money, but my son is enjoying them.

During the party, she kept interrupting to take way too many photos of my son, which was pretty awkward, especially with a lot of people there. And when it was time to cut the cake, she jumped in front of the kids and cut in line.

To top it off, she posted those photos on Instagram, even though I’ve talked to her ten times about not sharing my kid on social media, but she doesn’t listen. I love my MIL, but her behavior felt a bit off. Could this be signs of cognitive decline? I’m not sure how to approach it.[/quote]
