[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I guess I'm going against the grain but I would absolutely tell her I was disappointed she didn't attend and that we don't know how many birthdays grandma has left, and see what her response is.  And I would expect my mother would do the same thing if I made the choice your daughter did.  We are a "tell it like it is" family although we say our peace respectfully and don't nag or carry on.[/quote]

Np. [b]If you were my mom and "told it like it was" then I would probably skip more events[/b].  If you nag or try to make someone guilty than they might not want to be in your company.  I'm sure the dd can and will see grandma another day.  I think the older generation can use that "her last birthday card" for years and at some point it gets tiresome.[/quote]

Proud of being spiteful... how immature.

NP. I agree I would be unlikely to come to more events if my mother spoke to me as stated. Spiteful or not it would not have the outcome mom would be hoping for.[/quote]
