[quote=Anonymous]My mother is crazy jealous of my MIL. Literally, any time we see my MIL she makes a point to visit us shortly thereafter. It is totally a competition in her mind and she goes out of her way to win. Thankfully, the kids do not see this at all. All they see is that their grandmother visits them a lot, is super interested in them, etc. And MIL only visits when it suits, so it doesn't happen all that often. My point is, I think that there are many grandparents who do think its a competition. But, in your case, even though you Mom is hurt by the fact that she is "losing" the competition she isn't willing to put in the effort to even "tie." Keep inviting. Keep suggesting bonding opportunities. But at the end of the day, if she doesn't make the effort, then its no ones fault but her own.[/quote]
