[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here - thanks all, for the advice. 00:54 - I had hoped that as well. Good point about DS following my example. I want to model forgiveness and patience, but this may be one of those times when safety wins out. [/quote] I saw this and just need to add, please remember that by giving in to your mother's manipulative behavior, you are not modeling forgiveness and patience, you are modeling being a doormat for your DS. Forgiveness is telling her to leave when she wears perfume and letting her back whne she does as you asks, it is NOT letting her in anyways. Good luck and be strong! You can have a relationship with your mom on your terms if she is ready to be a good grandma, and remember that if she is not, your son (and you) are better off without her until she comes around. Be strong for your son and yourself, and definitely enlist DH when you need him. This is your life and your child. You sound like a great mom! [/quote]
