[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Weirdly, unlike a lot of PPs, my child's grandparents don't have some sort of custody order granting them "access" to my child. Their "access" is what DH and I say it is. Hand that rocks the cradle, people. [/quote] With your attitude I bet you are going to love it when you have to wait from your child and their spouse to tell you when or if you can see your grandchild![/quote] NP. I will fully respect that. It will be their child. Not mine. I will appreciate visits, not demand them.[/quote] But that's with the assumption that your son and DIL are open and honest and direct with you about what they want, not expecting you to read their minds and just know when something is annoying or problematic.[/quote] If something is "off," I know the best approach is easing up, not barreling forward.[/quote] And if you note something is off and you are unwanted, wouldn't you be concerned you had done or not done something to cause offense? Would you try to figure out what is going on? Wouldn't you feel hurt?[/quote] If ask my son about it, and leave my postpartum DIL alone.[/quote]
