[quote=Anonymous]Yes! Just returned from a weeklong trip w/my husband and 4 kids along with my parents (age 70). Everything seemed to irritate my mother. If the day wasn't going as planned, she would have a total attitude. Just sit and look on her phone and not really interacting with the kids. When I asked her what was bothering her, she blamed it on not wanting to get the kids in trouble....huh? It was exhausting. Like you said, I was just trying to enjoy the time with my kids and husband but had to spend unnecessary time/energy trying to navigate her emotions. We had planned a trip with them in a year to Hawaii. Def going to cancel that. It is sad, disappointing and exhausting all at the same time. [/quote]
