[quote=Anonymous]You know, I love my kids and my grandkids to pieces. However, I wasn't there when my last one was born. I'm going soon---but my dil and son agreed that maybe having me there right away wasn't best. Too many emotions. As needy as you sound, maybe your mom feels the need for a little distance. I know that I've deliberately withdrawn when I felt that my kids needed to learn to lean on me a bit less. It's healthier for everyone in the long run. Your mom is a person, not your free childcare or an extension of you. [/quote]
