[quote=Anonymous]Strict boundaries. If your kids can laugh at it and are OK and don't take it seriously it's one thing, but if it hurts, visit without them if needed. My grandmas were both mean and I was sensitive but had no choice-nobody protects people in my family. I did develop a sense of humor around it. That said, when mom became nasty to my kids, I set firm limits and she continued and I saw the impact. I don't have them visit. She doesn't care much other than for keeping up appearances. She does want photos.[/quote]
