[quote=Anonymous]PP, don't despair. I know people who have very warm, consistent, helpful families - tons of free help - and they are clueless and judgmental about those with terrible parents/grandparents. They are pure ingrates. If you do not believe there are terrible parents/grandparents, then we don't believe that every child is different and your child is simply a brat because s/he has too much FREE help! See, now the tables are turned. How does that feel? Does it sounds rational? Nor does the assumption that anyone DID anything to cause bitter parents/grandparents. Some people simply do not have the mental capacity (yes it takes smarts, and a conscientious choice) to be a good parent/grandparent. Some people were bad parents to begin with, so they will never be a good (not even great, just good0 grandparent. I don't think asking for a decent parent/grandparent is too much to ask. But don't expect me to take care of you when you are old if you are an a&&hole. [/quote]
