[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How will she be with little kids though? Some parents who are like this can be good with the little ones, so then the kid gets to have some kind of bond with GP while the kid is too young to recognize GP's issues. [/quote] I grew up with a toxic grandmother. I wish I hadn’t. She never directed her bile at me, but I did see her fight with, bully, and manipulate her children all the time. She also complained constantly. It normalized the behavior for me as a kid and made it much more likely for me to accept high drama situations as an adult that I should not have tolerated. For what “love” she was able to show, the negatives far outweighed the positives. Plenty of kids grow up without grandparents or with family friends who support the parents like extended family.[/quote]
