[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Toys are expected at most kid’s birthday parties! Maybe it’s getting harder for your MIL to feel and act like the grandmother that she wants to be if you’ve got a lot of stringent rules, and she decided to celebrate her way on his birthday, when a little excess is to be expected. Cognitive decline can definitely happen at her age. Maybe this is a personality change, which is a symptom of dementia, but we really can’t tell definitively just from your post. If something is happening, there will be more signs over time. All you can do is keep observing. You can bring up your concerns to your DH, but it’ll be up to him and his siblings, if any, to deal with her. [/quote] The toys aren’t really the biggest issue here. MIL has been ignoring a lot of what I say. It’s the overall pattern of her behavior yesterday, which felt very different than her usual behavior. [/quote]
