[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just double-check - your mom may be standing on ceremony and want an "invitation" to the sports events. My mom cried once when I was a kid that I didn't invite her to my ballet recital while I invited my dad. He worked and I just asked if he could come. Then I turned to her and said "You're coming too, right?" and she said, "You didn't invite me." Um, wasn't that what I was doing right that second? It was at camp, there were over 100 dancers performing, it was going to be fast and furious and informal as hell. I was 8. But later when I spoke with my father about it, he explained the concept of standing on ceremony in relation to my mom. Maybe your mom needs your kids to call her up and say "Hi Grandma. My big soccer game in this Sunday. Would you like to come watch me play?" If she says no, then "she's just not that into you." [/quote] Holy shit your mother said that to an EIGHT year old? Talk about emotional manipulation.[/quote]
