[quote=Anonymous]I don't think the OP sounds entitled or bratty at all. She's going to have another baby, and she wants her mom to come and help out. Sounds perfectly reasonable to me. When my kids have children, I hope I'm able to help out and I would love it if they asked me to. I would never ask my mom to help me, however, b/c I know she wouldn't (from having asked her before, and being told "I didn't have anyone helping me with my kids, why should you?"). OP, if you have a good relationship with your mom, you could probably talk openly to her and let her know that you really need her, and ask if there's any way for her to reschedule her book group. If she can't do it, then you'll at least have a fuller knowledge of your relationship, and you can move on. And in my opinion, yes, a book group is way less important than one's daughter.[/quote]
