[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If it were me, I’d ask your mother directly why she is purposely undermining her relationship with your daughter. Be clear that you will not relay to your daughter the complaints your mother expressed (she clearly wants you to). Daughter is 11 and has been a perfectly lovely guest in your opinion and you won’t burden your daughter with mislaid guilt. And speaking of hurtful, I’d tell your mother that her criticisms of your daughter are also very hurtful so you’ll gladly take a break rather than risk exposing your child to Manipulative, abusive behavior by an adult who is supposed to be a loving grandparent. [/quote] Different poster, but this is advice when the person is rational. I used to try this sort of thing and it set off rage fits. If you want to be in your parent's life without major dramatics you learn how to work it. OP, have you read Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents? Very useful.[/quote]
