[QUOTE="Andy, post: 219094, member: 5096"] As the granddaughter, you are in a different place to be able to detach from grandma's behavior. It is easier to tell her that you will not put up with it. Your mom lived in a different time with her mother in law. She had to deal with her as the mother to her husband. mother in law's can have more power than one can imagine over their children. The bringing up of T is just something to talk about. She wants to have something to share with you and is curious about your plans in that area. Just keep letting her know that you are done with that subject and would like to talk about something else. Maybe ask her what your dad was like growing up. Does she have stories to share that you can put into a memories book for Wynter? I am glad you enjoyed your mini vacation. Sounds like you handled things well with grandma. [/QUOTE]
