[quote=Anonymous]Wow - I'm sorry. I would tend to limit her visits to a weekend. I could probably learn to deal with most of her issues for a few days, but the playing favorites with the kids is NOT acceptable. I had a grandmother who did that and we all knew. But in my case, she favored my brother and didn't like me as well. I would let her do the cooking and deal with the rearranging. But treat her like a child when it comes to playing favorites and being judgmental. I would call her out on it right away. Don't sugar coat things but say, "What you just said to me is rude and I don't appreciate it. This is not how we speak to each other in this house." Then end the conversation. If she continues, I would say, "Until you can respect me in my home, you need a time out." Similar kind of language for playing favorites. [/quote]
