[quote=Anonymous]OP - I think you are right to question your decision about letting your mother care for your baby all day given your concerns. However, I also think some of the posters are being way, way, way over-dramatic.  The television may have been on all day because your mother doesn't like to sit in a quiet house.  There are a lot of people, especially of her generation, who just like the background noise.  My parents have either FoxNews or the Weather Channel on all day long. Just the way they are.

The smoking thing would bother me more, however she probably felt that since she wasn't smoking around the baby it wasn't a big deal. Again, just a difference in thinking.

I don't know your mother, but I would guess that she adores her grandchild.  THAT is the most important thing.  No daycare center in this world will ever be able to replace that.  No nanny would ever love your baby like her grandmother (hopefully) does.  Again, I'm assuming she is the typical loving (if not a little misguided) grandmother.

I don't think you damaged your daughter.  I don't think she suffered by being left with her grandmother.  ((hugs))  Don't be so hard on yourself.[/quote]
