[quote=Anonymous]OP I am really sorry you are going through this, first of all. Secondly I have had a similar experience with my own mother, except she was not excited or remotely interested in my having children. I think your mother and mine and many others feel displaced when the grandchildren come along, its no longer all about them, but all about the kids and they can't handle it. The criticism comes from the fact they want to be the know-all and wise one who everyone sees as a kind of family leader. And it doesn't happen and they get angry and bitter and jealous and act badly and let you down. We found moving 6000 miles away (to LA from London) helped immensely.[/quote]
