[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1. Your mother is staying for too long - half a year is way too long to stay. 
2. It sounds like she doesn't know how to be in the role of grandma. Maybe look for some books on it for her to read. [/quote]

Agree on both points.  She would never read a book. She knows everything. [/quote]

Then she needs to leave. Two week or one month trip? Okay. No more than that. [/quote]

I really think so too (this is OP). That will mean our relationship will never be the same. However, it might get damaged more if she stays.[/quote]

Tell her she either needs to back down or her visits will be short (or non-existent).  Not exactly the same situation since we all live in the same country, but my sister basically told my mom that with her first.  I'm, luckily, the beneficiary of this stance since my mom has never been so intrusive with me as she initially was with my sister.  She also backed down with my sister almost immediately.  You are the gateway to her grandkid; if you don't like the way she's handling grandparenting, you get to prevent her from doing so.[/quote]
