[quote=Anonymous]OP here

thanks for the criticism. I welcome all good or bad comments.

I still do not see how it is not an insult to be told we welcome you to our house but you are not worthy of celebrating Thanksgiving with us.  For 15 years we always celebrated on Thanksgiving day and then no more.  My mom or the kids grandma is in fine health and is the one who decided that she does not want to celebrate with my family on Thanksgiving.  I am not the one who made the changes.  My moms cooking while good is not exactly kid friendly. She starts off every meal we go there with some type of cream soup which my kids never touch and are not the healthy type of food I like.  She sees this everytime but has no desire to change or prepare the food that is more kid friendly or what we like.  So what is next am I supposed to bring my own food for the kids while they sit and look at grandmas soups without trying them. And yes my kids eat plenty of vegetables but cream soups are not something they or I like.  But mom or grandma is so predictable that she will cook the same thing each time regardless of the empty bowls.  I do not need any handouts or gifts as I have earned on my own enough to take care of my kids. It is just my philosophy to share my wealth with my kids or future grandchildren as part of helping them out.

Anyway criticize away.  I really do appreciate any words good or bad.

I wonder why it is so important for my mom to see us 4 days prior To Thanksgiving when there are many months when she does not even see the kids. So somehow on Thanksgiving (4 days before) we are supposed to let mom be happy by cooking away and having us all at her house.

I could not care less if Grandma babysits or not. She is the one missing out.  I just know it is something that I would do and my father does with joy but if she shows zero interest then it shows the type of self centered person she is.[/quote]
