[quote=Anonymous]Do you teens interact with her? My grandmother lived with us at that age when I was a teen. She and my mother were often irritated by each other, but I got along pretty great with her. We baked, watched sitcoms together (Golden Girls!), she told me I worked too hard and looked pretty, I helped her with her hair and getting things down from the closet, and we griped about how my mom imposed unreasonable rules on both of us. Is there something you can do to encourage her to interact more with your teens? Offer to pay them to help her run errands or do her hair/nails? Try to get them yo make a family history on their phones? Help grandma Google stalk all her old friends? (My mom loves to do this — I find her all the obits for people she knew decades ago z. It’s sometimes a fun google challenge.). Drive her to grocery store or target or Costco? [/quote]
