[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She's not the mom or the grandmother you wish she was, but she's not mean.  In fact, you say she's warm and friendly with the kids when she sees them or talks to them.  She just doesn't call as often as you think she should.  She's happy with you doing all the calling.  You're not.

I'd just call her less often.  Don't feel like you need to call once a week if it's making you seethe with resentment.  But I really don't see the need to cut her off.

Also, your comments about your mother's grief are disgusting.  She lost her child.  Who the hell are you to say that her grief is disproportionate or fake or overdramatic?  Have some fucking sympathy.  [/quote]

OP it seems like you are making this into a big drama, but your mother said she was fine with things as they were. So why are you so frustrated that she hasn't changed? She didn't even promise to. 
She texted you and you forced her hand by calling her and putting the kids on the phone- I know you think that's the relationship she should have with your kids but she doesn't want it- why can't you respect her wishes?
I know it must be upsetting, but at this point you are really doing it to yourself. No need to cut her off but it is time to accept this relationship for what it is.[/quote]
