[QUOTE="Star*, post: 222748, member: 4964"] Maybe you should send HER a thank you note. Thank her for not sending the notes to your side of the family for the lovely wedding gifts and explain that not everyone "gets over" not being thanked. Thank her for not sending out the baby shower thank you notes - because once again it stuck YOU smack in the middle of what she was raised to do and what she didn't do and you didn't want a repeat of those family members who didn't "get over" not getting thanked for the wedding presents to come to YOU again with their complaints about her not being appreciative. Explain to here that there will be NO MORE invitations sent to your side of the family for any more of her "accomplishments" and that should solve the problem alltogether AND since she is refusing you visitation to your grandchild - you won't know about anything else in her life because in order to see her, you'd be seeing the grandchild and she's denied you that so you don't know how you'd see her either. Which actually works out fine for the sake of thank you notes because if you aren't around her or the baby you won't have any reason to invite your side of the family to any of her gatherings as you won't know about them. Then thank her for that too. Tell her she's been a little more than hard to deal with and whenever she's ready to stop being a serf-centered, bitter person - you'd love to sit and talk with her and share time with her and your grandchild. Congrats on being a grandma - sorry it had to be like this. Hugs Star Oh and you can bet I would send a thank you card.....4 sure. [/QUOTE]
