[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If her offer and repeated assurance was a genuine factor in your family planning (and not just a bonus), meaning that you genuinely would have waited longer to have DC2 and now you're going to be under financial hardship to pay for the additional childcare, that is legitimate grounds to cut her out of your life for good, in my book. It sounds like she doesn't respect either of you anyway, so I wouldn't hesitate at all.[/quote] The fact that you will cut your MIL out of your life because she withdrew her offer to take care of your child for a year says a lot about you, not her. Grandma has no right to change her mind, but OP and her husband can create new boundaries. If I had a friend who cut their MIL or mother out of their lives for something this ridiculous, I will examine that friendship with a microscope.[/quote]
