[quote=Anonymous]If she doesn't remember how teens are, you can gently remind her and then let it go. Stay calm and simply respect your teens boundaries. You can validate grandma's sadness that the peer group is more important to her right now, but you cannot fix anything or force grandma to understand after you have already gently explained. Some people become more self-centered with age and cannot empathize as much. The sad thing is that will push away the teen more. If grandma were excited she her grandchild was enjoying this stage of life with peers then her grandchild might want to hangout more.[/quote]
