[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm so annoyed and just need to vent. My sister just had a baby. I'm due in just a few months. There are already two grandchildren who are older so my parents "grandparent" names were already chosen, or so I thought. (Think traditional, like Grandma and Grandpa). I just saw photos posted online and my mom is now going by a different funky "Grandma" name, which I was never asked about and frankly I refuse to have my kids call her (think "Glitter"). I'm so annoyed that nobody ran this by me since our kids will be 4 months apart. At this point I'll just pick our own name to call her since it seems like every family gets to pick what they call my parents.[b] I don't know why nobody thought to ask me[/b] or at least tell me before they started posting her new "name" online. [/quote] [raises hand] I'm pretty sure I know. [/quote] LOL! Maybe your mom doesn't want to be called Grandmother or Granny. My MIL chose Nana, which in my culture is what you cal your maternal Grandfather, but we adjusted. My FIL wanted to be called another European name that is impossible to pronounce, so we vetoed and asked if Grandpa would be okay.[/quote]
